"Building Learning Communities Through Critical Reflection"

The mission of the School of Education and Allied Professions is “building learning communities through critical reflection.” The vision of the School is to prepare distinctive graduates who will effectively and efficiently utilize the highest quality of learning, leadership and scholarship to build strong learning communities and develop collaborative, caring partnerships.

 
This vision embodies the characteristics of Marianist education:

  • educate for formation in faith;
  • provide an integral, quality education;
  • educate in family spirit;
  • educate for service, justice, and peace;
  • and educate for adaptation and change.

The School merges critical reflection with fostering a learning community that focuses on educational theory and practice.
