In the College of Education,
we’re doing more than teaching
tomorrow’s educators, administrators,
health specialists, and human service
professionals. We’re preparing tomorrow’s
leaders who will affect change in schools,
communities and businesses. Our wide-
ranging degree programs are springboards
to practically any career you
can imagine.
There’s no better example of what our
college “is about” and what the future
holds for those with education degrees
than our alumni—who now number more
than 31,000 and can be found providing leadership and expanding opportunities for others in
all 50 states and in 35 countries.
Many of our service-focused graduates give back through distinguished teaching, health,
and public service careers. Some of our alumni enter health professions like athletic training,
physical and occupational therapy, and health promotions. Others are human service leaders
in special education, rehabilitation, and counseling. In short, our students are prepared to be
leaders from the classroom to the boardroom—and from Auburn to the world!
I’m excited about your interest in our college, and more importantly, a career that’s all about
being a leader and influencing change—a career that can truly build a better future for all.
War Eagle!

mission
The mission of the Auburn University College
of Education is to build a better future for
individuals, our state, our nation and our world.
We fulfill our mission by preparing competent,
committed and reflective professionals as we
engage in outstanding teaching, cutting-edge
research and meaningful outreach.
the keystone
The keystone, the topmost stone of an arch,
serves as a visual reminder of our mission and
our goals. Just as the keystone supports and
holds an arch together, education holds intact
the promise of a better future for all. We believe
that education is the keystone of opportunity
and equity in a richly diverse, increasingly
technological and ever-changing world. It is the
critical building block that enables individuals
and societies to flourish in a global community.
core values
Our core values are built on the vision that
education serves as a keystone in improving
society and building better futures for all. With
that understanding, college faculty, staff and
students commit to core values of excellence;
ethics and dignity; diversity; student focus; and collaboration and public engagement.
commitment to diversity
The college supports and enhances a healthy appreciation, recognition and understanding of the
diversity within and cultures represented by our student body. Students, faculty and staff learn
how to better appreciate and respect individuals with different backgrounds through coursework
and community outreach—much of which serves students and adults from underrepresented
populations. Several programs in the college illustrate our commitment to diversity, including
mentoring programs, and for graduate students, the Holmes Scholars Program.
The college participates in other campus programming coordinated by Auburn’s Office of
Diversity and Multicultural Affairs (www.auburn.edu/diversity), and various efforts by the Office of
International Students (www.auburn.edu/iso). For more information about the college’s commitment
to diversity, visit education.auburn.edu/edudiversity.

AdmissionAdmissions
undergraduate admissions
All prospective students interested in a College of Education undergraduate program begin the
admissions process by submitting an application to the Auburn University Office of Undergraduate
Recruitment. For information on becoming an Auburn Tiger, visit auburn.edu/admissions. Additional
information for transfer students is posted at auburn.edu/transfer.
graduate admissions
The graduate admissions process begins by submitting an application with required documentation
to the Auburn University Graduate School (www.grad.auburn.edu). Prospective students should
also consult the appropriate departmental Web site for any additional program-specific admission
requirements or required documentation. Once a completed application is submitted, the
department reviews the application packet and makes a recommendation to the Graduate School
regarding admission.
academic advising
Undergraduate advising begins with Camp War Eagle (www.auburn.edu/cwe) for entering freshmen
and Successfully Orientating Students, or SOS (www.auburn.edu/sos), for transfer students. During
these sessions, academic advisors in the college’s Professional Education Services office
(education.auburn.edu/edustudents/pes) provide an overview of curricular matters, assist with course
registration, and assign students a faculty or departmental advisor. Graduate students are assigned
a major professor upon admission to the Graduate School and work directly with this individual
throughout their studies.
scholarships and financial aid
Auburn University automatically considers all undergraduate students for university scholarships
upon their acceptance. In addition, the College of Education awards more than 100 undergraduate
and graduate scholarships each year—thanks to the generosity of alumni and friends.
Undergraduate Education students are contacted through their Auburn e-mail account at the end
of the fall semester with information about the college’s scholarship application process for the
upcoming academic year.
Graduate students are encouraged to contact their department for information regarding
fellowships and assistantships.
To learn more about the college’s scholarship
opportunities, visit education.auburn.edu/
edustudents/financialaid. For more information
about university scholarships and additional
financial aid opportunities, including
loans and grants, visit
auburn.edu/scholarship and
auburn.edu/finaid.
“It is an incredible honor to receive a scholarship.
It is amazing to see alumni who still believe in
Auburn and are willing to help celebrate the
accomplishments of students.”

baccalaureate degrees
Undergraduate, or baccalaureate, study in the college results in a bachelor’s of science (B.S.) for
all students except those in undergraduate music education programs, who receive a bachelor’s of
music education (B.M.E.).
master’s degrees
Depending on the program, graduate study at the master’s-degree level leads to either a master of
science (M.S.), a thesis option, or a master of education (M.Ed.), a non-thesis option. In addition,
some advanced teacher certification areas offer an alternative master’s program for individuals with
a non-certification baccalaureate degree and a traditional master’s program for those with initial
certification in a teaching field.
specialist in education degree
Education specialist, or Ed.S., degree programs allow education and human service professionals to
increase their competence in a field of specialization. These programs consist of a minimum of 30
hours beyond the coursework required for a master’s degree.
doctoral degrees
Doctoral-level study in the college leads to a doctor of philosophy (Ph.D.) degree, which requires
the successful completion of coursework, an oral examination and a scholarly dissertation.
distance education
The college has long been a leader in Auburn University distance education. Information about
our distance education degree offerings is noted throughout this viewbook or online at
education.auburn.edu/distance.
certificates and minors
Certificates provide degree-seeking and non-degree-seeking graduate students an opportunity for
concentrated study in a specialized area.
Minors are available to students enrolled in degree programs.
Both opportunities are highlighted throughout this
viewbook and online from the “Academic Programs”
link at education.auburn.edu.

Teacher
	Certificati
Teacher
	 Certification
The college’s teacher education programs ensure program
graduates have the knowledge, skills and dispositions to
help all students learn. These programs maintain selective
admission, retention and graduation requirements and
comply with the Alabama State Board of Education’s rules
for teacher education. The college is accredited by the National Council for Accreditation of Teacher
Education (NCATE). All programs preparing teachers and other professional school personnel are
approved by the Alabama State Board of Education.
initial teacher certification programs
Upon acceptance into an undergraduate teacher certification program, students are assigned a
pre-teacher education status. Students apply for admission to teacher education after completing a
minimum of 45 semester hours and fulfilling current admissions criteria. For most programs, students
are admitted once all requirements have been fulfilled; however, high-demand programs have
limited enrollment. Learn more online at education.auburn.edu/edustudents.
Alternative master’s certification degree programs offer qualified students who hold non-certification
baccalaureate degrees a route to initial teacher certification while simultaneously earning a
master’s degree. Students accepted into these programs must meet all state requirements for initial
certification programs, including, but not limited to, state testing requirements and a clear criminal
background check.
advanced certification programs
The college offers master’s and specialist certification degree programs for qualified students. These
programs provide graduate students an opportunity to build on and extend their knowledge and
expertise in the teaching area of their initial certification or in a new certification area such as English
for speakers of other languages, instructional leadership, library media, reading specialist and school
counseling.
education interview day
The college hosts two Education Interview Days each year for both in-state and out-of-state school
systems seeking to employ Auburn graduates. Teacher education students receive résumé and
interview assistance in preparing for the event and are able to schedule interviews with school
representatives of their choice. The event is in conjunction with Auburn’s Career Development
Services (www.auburn.edu/cds) and Auburn University Montgomery’s College of Education.
assurance of competence
The college guarantees the success of graduates receiving initial professional certification through
the college and who are employed within their area(s) of specialization. Remediation at no cost to
the graduate will be provided if job performance, within the first two years of program completion,
is deemed unsatisfactory by a local education agency based on performance evaluations established
by the Alabama State Board of Education.

Student LifeStudent Life
student organizations
and leadership
More than 15 college-based student
organizations add to the plethora of
campus-wide opportunities available to our
undergraduate and graduate students alike.
Education students find these organizations
useful in building deeper relationships with
their fellow students and college faculty, while
also learning more about their various disciplines or
education in general.
Two organizations—the College of Education Student
Council and Student Ambassadors—offer students service and leadership opportunities at the
college level, and in many cases, greater chances to work with college administrators and alumni. All
students enrolled in the college are eligible to participate in Student Council. Selection for Student
Ambassadors is on a competitive basis, with application details distributed by e-mail each spring.
The college and its faculty encourage and support students who become involved in campus-wide
organizations, including leadership organizations like the Student Government Association, honorary
societies like Phi Kappa Phi and other various organizations.
For more information about the organizations available to students, visit
education.auburn.edu/edustudents/orgs.
multicultural field experiences and internships
Local and international service learning, practica and internships offer students opportunities to
experience cultures other than their own and to help fulfill the college’s commitment
to outreach and service while developing and demonstrating competence in the
professional roles for which they are preparing. To provide and broaden students’
cultural awareness and diversity of professional experiences, the college also offers
and continues to expand service-learning excursions to foreign counties as well
as to rural and urban locations in Alabama and throughout the United States. The
Consortium for Overseas Student Teaching (COST) currently offers semester-long
overseas internships to students in teacher education programs. Learn more about
international opportunities at education.auburn.edu/internatl.
learning community
The College of Education’s Learning Community allows a group of incoming
freshmen to connect with other Education students, faculty and administrators.
Members of the learning community form a cohort that completes several of the
university’s core courses together. Learning community members also engage in
organized activities to enhance and promote collaboration, advocacy and diversity
within the college. Learn more online at education.auburn.edu/edustudents/lc.

The Learning Community gave me insight into becoming
a teacher. It also led to many new friends in my major.

Centers and
Institutes
Centers and
Institutes
The East Alabama Regional Inservice Center serves schools in 15 east central
Alabama school districts by providing a wide range of resources, training and services for area
teachers and administrators. In addition to conducting region-wide workshops, conferences
and seminars, the center assists staff development coordinators in local schools in planning and
conducting system and school-based in-service training. Information about EARIC’s programs and
resources is online at education.auburn.edu/earic.
The Learning Resources Center serves as the college’s information, resource and
technology hub by providing students and faculty with computer and Internet access, instructional
equipment, circulation materials, and project and presentation materials. The center is available
into the evening for those attending classes or requiring after-hours computing access. For more
information, visit education.auburn.edu/lrc. Wireless resources in Haley Center and throughout the
campus’ academic and residential areas allow students to remain “connected.” Many faculty use the
Web to post class assignments, lecture materials and other resources for student access.
The Truman Pierce Institute is the college’s research and outreach institute devoted to
the study and improvement of teaching and learning. TPI’s roles also include fostering collaboration
between higher education and public schools, developing professional development in schools,

The Department of Curriculum and Teaching
houses the majority of the college’s teacher educa-
tion degree programs. All of the department’s degree
programs, coursework and field experiences focus
on preparing students to become quality educators
and implementing the latest instructional methods
for teaching in today’s classrooms. Faculty strive to
enable students to understand, utilize, communicate
and appreciate the teaching profession and how edu-
cation serves a vital role — whether locally or as part
of the global community.
The department offers students a wealth of career-
building opportunities through partnerships with oth-
er Auburn colleges and schools, numerous research
and outreach programs in every teaching discipline,
and field experiences developed in collaboration
with school/university partners. These field experi-
ences, which include both domestic and international
placements, allow students to work with faculty and
educational professionals while applying classroom
concepts. The department’s various K-12 school part-
nerships give students a front-row seat in furthering
teaching and learning.
Whether their futures lie in the classroom or
beyond, students learn the latest in content knowl-
edge, pedagogy, research and technology as they
aspire to become the most competent, committed
and reflective professionals possible.

The Department of Kinesiology equips
students to improve the health or performance
of individuals by combining an educational focus
with the intervention model. Experiences range
from helping an elderly person remain well and fit,
to motivating a young child to be more physically
active, and to assisting an elite athlete run faster or
jump higher.
Kinesiology students can earn degrees leading to ca-
reers as physical and occupational therapists, health
professionals or certified teachers. Students benefit
from the department’s subscription to the “interven-
tionist” model — that is, all teaching, research and
public service is directed toward enhancing indi-
viduals’ abilities to move and be physically active.
Students learn how to intervene in the lives of those
who wish to become healthier or improve their ath-
letic performance.
The department’s instructional areas include exer-
cise science, health promotion and physical educa-
tion, and each prepares students to “intervene” with
students, patients and others in school, medical and
industry settings. Kinesiology research and exten-
sion efforts run the gamut, and like the department’s
academic programs, seek to improve health, well-
ness and physical performance.

Department of Special Education, Rehabilita-
tion and Counseling programs combine education
with human service in bettering the lives of and op-
portunities for others. These programs train students
to help individuals overcome various physical, educa-
tional, psychological, social or environmental barriers
by combining coursework, research, outreach, and
field and clinical experiences.
Rehabilitation and Special Education degree
programs prepare students to serve those with spe-
cial needs and disabilities. Special Education degree
programs train future educators and professionals
to work with infants to school-aged students with
autism, mental retardation, learning disabilities and
behavioral disorders. Rehabilitation degree programs
equip students to serve school-aged and post-school-
aged people with disabilities as vocational evalua-
tors, adjustment specialists, case managers and job
coaches.
Counseling degree programs offer high-quality gradu-
ate education programs for counselors, counselor
educators and counseling psychologists. Through
these programs, students develop the tools needed
to help individuals in school and community settings
achieve their greatest levels of educational and per-
sonal development.

We’re preparing tomorrow’s leaders who will affect change in schools, communities and businesses. Our wide- ranging degree programs are springboards to practically any career you can imagine. There’s no better example of what our college “is about” and what the future holds for those with education degrees than our alumni—who now number more than 31,000 and can be found providing leadership and expanding opportunities for others in all 50 states and in 35 countries. Many of our service-focused graduates give back through distinguished teaching, health, and public service careers. Some of our alumni enter health professions like athletic training, physical and occupational therapy, and health promotions. Others are human service leaders in special education, rehabilitation, and counseling. In short, our students are prepared to be leaders from the classroom to the boardroom—and from Auburn to the world!

We fulfill our mission by preparing competent, committed and reflective professionals as we engage in outstanding teaching, cutting-edge research and meaningful outreach. the keystone The keystone, the topmost stone of an arch, serves as a visual reminder of our mission and our goals. Just as the keystone supports and holds an arch together, education holds intact the promise of a better future for all. We believe that education is the keystone of opportunity and equity in a richly diverse, increasingly technological and ever-changing world. It is the critical building block that enables individuals and societies to flourish in a global community. core values Our core values are built on the vision that education serves as a keystone in improving society and building better futures for all. With that understanding, college faculty, staff and students commit to core values of excellence; ethics and dignity; diversity; student focus; and collaboration and public engagement. commitment to diversity The college supports and enhances a healthy appreciation, recognition and understanding of the diversity within and cultures represented by our student body. Students, faculty and staff learn how to better appreciate and respect individuals with different backgrounds through coursework and community outreach—much of which serves students and adults from underrepresented populations. Several programs in the college illustrate our commitment to diversity, including mentoring programs, and for graduate students, the Holmes Scholars Program. The college participates in other campus programming coordinated by Auburn’s Office of Diversity and Multicultural Affairs (www.auburn.edu/diversity), and various efforts by the Office of International Students (www.auburn.edu/iso). For more information about the college’s commitment to diversity, visit education.auburn.edu/edudiversity.

  • 5. 3 AdmissionAdmissions undergraduate admissions All prospective students interested in a College of Education undergraduate program begin the admissions process by submitting an application to the Auburn University Office of Undergraduate Recruitment. For information on becoming an Auburn Tiger, visit auburn.edu/admissions. Additional information for transfer students is posted at auburn.edu/transfer. graduate admissions The graduate admissions process begins by submitting an application with required documentation to the Auburn University Graduate School (www.grad.auburn.edu). Prospective students should also consult the appropriate departmental Web site for any additional program-specific admission requirements or required documentation. Once a completed application is submitted, the department reviews the application packet and makes a recommendation to the Graduate School regarding admission. academic advising Undergraduate advising begins with Camp War Eagle (www.auburn.edu/cwe) for entering freshmen and Successfully Orientating Students, or SOS (www.auburn.edu/sos), for transfer students. During these sessions, academic advisors in the college’s Professional Education Services office (education.auburn.edu/edustudents/pes) provide an overview of curricular matters, assist with course registration, and assign students a faculty or departmental advisor. Graduate students are assigned a major professor upon admission to the Graduate School and work directly with this individual throughout their studies. scholarships and financial aid Auburn University automatically considers all undergraduate students for university scholarships upon their acceptance. In addition, the College of Education awards more than 100 undergraduate and graduate scholarships each year—thanks to the generosity of alumni and friends. Undergraduate Education students are contacted through their Auburn e-mail account at the end of the fall semester with information about the college’s scholarship application process for the upcoming academic year. Graduate students are encouraged to contact their department for information regarding fellowships and assistantships. To learn more about the college’s scholarship opportunities, visit education.auburn.edu/ edustudents/financialaid. For more information about university scholarships and additional financial aid opportunities, including loans and grants, visit auburn.edu/scholarship and auburn.edu/finaid. “It is an incredible honor to receive a scholarship. It is amazing to see alumni who still believe in Auburn and are willing to help celebrate the accomplishments of students.” Kayla McKnight physical education

In addition, some advanced teacher certification areas offer an alternative master’s program for individuals with a non-certification baccalaureate degree and a traditional master’s program for those with initial certification in a teaching field. specialist in education degree Education specialist, or Ed.S., degree programs allow education and human service professionals to increase their competence in a field of specialization. These programs consist of a minimum of 30 hours beyond the coursework required for a master’s degree. doctoral degrees Doctoral-level study in the college leads to a doctor of philosophy (Ph.D.) degree, which requires the successful completion of coursework, an oral examination and a scholarly dissertation. distance education The college has long been a leader in Auburn University distance education. Information about our distance education degree offerings is noted throughout this viewbook or online at education.auburn.edu/distance. certificates and minors Certificates provide degree-seeking and non-degree-seeking graduate students an opportunity for concentrated study in a specialized area. Minors are available to students enrolled in degree programs. Both opportunities are highlighted throughout this viewbook and online from the “Academic Programs” link at education.auburn.edu.

  • 7. 5 Teacher Certificati Teacher Certification The college’s teacher education programs ensure program graduates have the knowledge, skills and dispositions to help all students learn. These programs maintain selective admission, retention and graduation requirements and comply with the Alabama State Board of Education’s rules for teacher education. The college is accredited by the National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCATE). All programs preparing teachers and other professional school personnel are approved by the Alabama State Board of Education. initial teacher certification programs Upon acceptance into an undergraduate teacher certification program, students are assigned a pre-teacher education status. Students apply for admission to teacher education after completing a minimum of 45 semester hours and fulfilling current admissions criteria. For most programs, students are admitted once all requirements have been fulfilled; however, high-demand programs have limited enrollment. Learn more online at education.auburn.edu/edustudents. Alternative master’s certification degree programs offer qualified students who hold non-certification baccalaureate degrees a route to initial teacher certification while simultaneously earning a master’s degree. Students accepted into these programs must meet all state requirements for initial certification programs, including, but not limited to, state testing requirements and a clear criminal background check. advanced certification programs The college offers master’s and specialist certification degree programs for qualified students. These programs provide graduate students an opportunity to build on and extend their knowledge and expertise in the teaching area of their initial certification or in a new certification area such as English for speakers of other languages, instructional leadership, library media, reading specialist and school counseling. education interview day The college hosts two Education Interview Days each year for both in-state and out-of-state school systems seeking to employ Auburn graduates. Teacher education students receive résumé and interview assistance in preparing for the event and are able to schedule interviews with school representatives of their choice. The event is in conjunction with Auburn’s Career Development Services (www.auburn.edu/cds) and Auburn University Montgomery’s College of Education. assurance of competence The college guarantees the success of graduates receiving initial professional certification through the college and who are employed within their area(s) of specialization. Remediation at no cost to the graduate will be provided if job performance, within the first two years of program completion, is deemed unsatisfactory by a local education agency based on performance evaluations established by the Alabama State Board of Education.
  • 8. 6 Student LifeStudent Life student organizations and leadership More than 15 college-based student organizations add to the plethora of campus-wide opportunities available to our undergraduate and graduate students alike. Education students find these organizations useful in building deeper relationships with their fellow students and college faculty, while also learning more about their various disciplines or education in general.

  • 15. 13 y The Department of Kinesiology equips students to improve the health or performance of individuals by combining an educational focus with the intervention model. Experiences range from helping an elderly person remain well and fit, to motivating a young child to be more physically active, and to assisting an elite athlete run faster or jump higher. Kinesiology students can earn degrees leading to ca- reers as physical and occupational therapists, health professionals or certified teachers. Students benefit from the department’s subscription to the “interven- tionist” model — that is, all teaching, research and public service is directed toward enhancing indi- viduals’ abilities to move and be physically active. Students learn how to intervene in the lives of those who wish to become healthier or improve their ath- letic performance. The department’s instructional areas include exer- cise science, health promotion and physical educa- tion, and each prepares students to “intervene” with students, patients and others in school, medical and industry settings. Kinesiology research and exten- sion efforts run the gamut, and like the department’s academic programs, seek to improve health, well- ness and physical performance.
