School of Education

Christian teachers transform lives

Education has been at the heart of Concordia University since our founding. Our roots and our reputation run deep. Concordia’s School of Education continues to prepare educators and administrators who serve and lead with a dual purpose both to deliver exceptional education, while impacting the lives of students, families, and communities across a wide range of educational contexts. Education undergraduate students also participate in the Concordia Core, a rigorous, liberal arts curriculum integrated with Lutheran distinctives.

Our Mission

The School of Education equips and inspires Christian servant leaders to pursue integrity and excellence in the delivery of educational services within professional and lifelong learning throughout the world.

At Concordia University, we believe in the transformational role of education, and are committed to providing meaningful experiences in all of our teacher education degree programs. Small class sizes and outsized individual mentoring immerse you in personal learning. Rigorous, innovative curriculum empowers you to lead with confidence and agility. Our value for Christ-centered faith and learning invites you to align your beliefs within instructional settings as you deepen your sense of calling and vocation.
