OPPORTUNITIES TO GIVE

As UH has ascended to Tier One status, the College of Education also has transformed. We've raised the rigor and relevance of our instruction and scholarship. We've grown research activity significantly, increasing grant awards, publications and citations. And we've earned national recognition from U.S. News & World Report for our graduate online education program and from the Association of Teacher Educators for our teacher-preparation program.

To accelerate to the next level, we must continue to invest in the College.

How can you help?

  • Scholarships help attract top students who can graduate without the burden of debt.
  • Endowed professorships help recruit and retain top-notch faculty.
  • Donations to our centers and institutes help advance research and empower the community in the areas of education and health.

Together, we can continue to transform lives.
