The College of Education at Sacramento State

 

Mission

We strive to meet the educational challenges of the twenty first century and beyond, working with the community, our practitioner colleagues, and students to develop responsive systems of educational leadership and challenging learning environments.

We seek to maximize the opportunities for all to achieve their full potential.

We embrace the diversity of the community we serve; building on its strengths, while addressing its needs.

We draw upon interdisciplinary traditions to seek new solutions in an environment of constant educational renewal.

Our students learn in a community-based environment developed through partnerships with the public colleges and other agencies. They apply their skills and knowledge using a variety of academic disciplines and community resources. They are prepared to provide for the needs of people in a diverse society.

Our faculty and students collaborate to develop a genuine community of scholars dedicated to ensuring access to the full range of opportunity afforded by this society. Programs use a multidisciplinary approach to reflect more completely the broad diversity within our society.

Program faculty teach each student cohort the appropriate counseling, administrative, developmental, and instructional skills necessary to respond to the professional challenges now and in the future.

Our college is dedicated to providing the intellectual leadership and energy necessary to analyze and adapt, where appropriate, college and community services in a time of increasingly rapid societal changes.

Our collaborative efforts aim at a process for this restructuring that is responsive to the dynamic society in which our students move.

Diversity, community, and collaboration are the values that mark the vision behind all of our educator preparation programs.
