Our mission at the College of Education is to provide high-quality undergraduate and graduate instruction, to conduct meaningful research designed to illuminate and solve problems, and to use our expertise to serve our community.

In pursuit of our mission, we cultivate sustainable alliances that link the College to our community. Our varied partnerships range from a community-wide literacy alliance to internship and research project opportunities at the YMCA for Physical Education students to the development and delivery of crisis intervention training for the Memphis Police Department.
