SOE is organized into two academic divisions: Foundations, Educational Research and Humans Studies (FERHS); and Teacher Education and Public Service (TEPS).
Divison of Foundations, Educational Research and Humans Studies (FERHS)
FERHS Division covers education theories and practices, educational psychology and research, and educational technology. Courses taught by Foundations faculty members are taken by students in all the School of Education programs and form the core structure of their educational development.
