Welcome to the School of Education at the University of North Texas at Dallas. The School of Education prepares students for careers in education and prepares them to serve in linguistically and culturally diverse communities in the North Texas region and beyond. We strive to strengthen area school districts in the UNT-Dallas community with high-quality teachers who will ultimately serve under-resourced youth. We also work directly with school district and community college partners to support recruiting. Additionally, we are actively engaged with students and alumni to improve student retention and graduation rates.
