The College of Education at the University of Hawai'i at
Mānoa (UHM) promotes human development within the context
of a multicultural society. The mission of the college is
as follows:
- to prepare and provide ongoing professional development
of teachers, administrators, counselors, and related professionals
at the undergraduate and graduate levels;
- to generate, synthesize, and apply knowledge in education
and related fields through teaching, research, and other
scholarly activities; and
- to provide service and support to the local, national,
and global educational and related communities.
The College of Education is accredited by the Western Association
of Schools and Colleges (WASC). It is also accredited by the
State of Hawai'i under the State Approval of Teacher Education
(SATE) process, applying standards established by the National
Association of State Directors of Teacher Education and Certification
(NASDTEC). SATE approval qualifies education graduates for
reciprocal teaching license and certification in at least
40 other states and the District of Columbia. In practice,
education graduates qualify for certification in all states.
The college is one of 19 institutions in the United States
that have formally established a working school and university
partnership as members of the Goodlad National Network for
Educational Renewal. The college is also a member of the Holmes
partnership of research universities and is dedicated to upgrading
and improving the quality of its teacher education programs.
The college is committed to the integration of computers into
the educational programs of teachers and students in Hawai'i.
A microcomputer laboratory (Microlab) has been created to
afford students, faculty, and staff direct access to computers
for instruction, management, and research in education.
The college offers a PhD in Education — a college-wide
degree awarded for distinguished academic preparation for
professional practice and research in the field of education.
The program is designed to enhance and facilitate educational,
social, and economic growth locally, nationally, and internationally
with a pool of highly qualified educational scholars and leaders.
