At the University of Maine College of Education and Human Development, our students, faculty, staff and alumni inspire tomorrow each and every day. To help them do that, everything we do in the college is anchored by our commitments to CARE, QUALITY and CAREER.

Watch the videos below to learn more about our commitments to our students. When you are ready, we’d love to have you commit to us.

CARE

Education and human development is care work.

To help our students improve the lives of individuals, families, schools, and communities, we match their commitment to care with our own.

In the College, you will find an intentional network of support that is designed to help you to succeed in exactly the ways you plan for yourself.

QUALITY

Our academic programs are aligned with and where possible exceed the highest bars for quality.

Within a supportive environment, students in the College of Education and Human Development learn about, practice with, and even help develop the technologies, ideas, and learning environments that will inspire tomorrow for future generations.

CAREER

Direct, career-relevant experiences start in year one of all our academic programs. Before graduation, every student in the College of Education and Human Development completes an internship or clinical placement.

Partnerships on- and off-campus make it possible for students to earn while they learn.

And when students graduate, they do so with the skills and knowledge needed for immediate employment in high demand fields.
