A Message from the Dean

Welcome to the School of Education at the University of Alaska Southeast.  We are a vibrant, innovative, and growing school dedicated to preparing highly effective teachers for Alaska’s schools.  The School of Education offers programs designed to meet the needs of those preparing to become teachers and those who are already in the profession.  We have a strong tradition for preparing teachers of excellence who demonstrate a commitment to enhancing the lives of students.  With our partners, the schools of Alaska, we have created opportunities for accessibility to our programs through distance delivery.  We also have programs with summer institutes on the Juneau campus that take advantage of the wonderful outdoor experience only available here.  I invite you to look at the programs on this web site and then send us an email, make a phone call, or come by our offices for more information.  Together, we want to help you make a difference in the lives of students.
