About CECH

The College of Education, Criminal Justice, and Human Services is dedicated to making a difference in our communities through outreach, academic programs, and community partnerships. Our students and faculty work side-by-side with teachers, athletic trainers, community wellness experts, intervention specialists, and law enforcement officials because we value experiential learning as an important element in our coursework and degree programs. Current research in these areas is incorporated into every course to ensure our graduates are prepared to address the most urgent challenges of our society.

Our College is divided into 3 academic Schools, with specific areas of focus and opportunity for students and faculty alike. In addition to the Schools, other departments support the college’s operations and outreach efforts, including the Office of the Dean, which houses our development staff, the Center for Educational Outreach, the Business Office, and our Grants and Contracts offices and our centers for research, pedagogy, and curriculum.

Together, we are dedicated to making a difference in the communities where we live and work.
