The 'College of Education and Human Development' (CEHD) is one of seventeen colleges and professional schools at the
University of Minnesota. CEHD departments are located on both the East Bank and St. Paul campuses.
The college was founded in 1905 as the Department of Pedagogy. As as fall 2006 it enrolled 5,788 full-year equivalent students and employed 191 tenured and tenure-track faculty.
During the academic year 2005-2006 the college granted 2,105 degrees (443 B.S., 484 M.Ed., 345 master’s and advanced graduate degrees). In addition, 833 students completed postbaccalaureate teacher licensure (427 initial licensure and 406 additional licensure).
In 2006 the college was merged with the General College, the
School of Social Work, and the
Department of Family Social Science. This merger resulted in a new, much larger and broader College, with a lifespan focus beyond many traditional colleges of education. In addition, the College will now be a freshman admitting college.
