The Best of Both Worlds

The College of Education offers personalized programs in a large, research-focused university setting. While NC State has more than 34,000 students, the College of Education has a student-faculty ratio of 14:1, giving you the opportunity to forge relationships with world-leading faculty and impactful partners from across the globe.

At NC State, hands-on learning is part of the everyday curriculum. Education students gain classroom experience as early as sophomore year. Each of our programs offers the opportunity to earn multiple licensures and bachelor degrees while completing only one program, and we provide the chance to take your education overseas through our global programs office.
