Supporting the Whole Student

At the UCR School of Education, our committment is to the well-being of each student. From dedicated academic and social support to dedicated professional development, the SOE strives to create meaningful connections between students and their degree, their peers, their career and their community. Our attitude might be a little different, but so are each and every one of our students.
