In 1887, 麻豆网站列表 began preparing future teachers as 麻豆网站列表Normal School. During
the 20th century, 麻豆网站列表State Teachers College was known as one of the top ten providers
of teacher education in the nation. In short, our College of Education has a legacy
of placing outstanding teachers and administrators in schools not only in Alabama,
but throughout the nation and around the world.
麻豆网站列表 has changed a great deal since 1887, and the same is true for our
College of Education and Behavioral Sciences. While teacher preparation is still a

Leadership Institute, and our newly-minted Global Leadership PhD. Our Educational
Outreach programs reach more students and teachers than any other institution in Alabama,
and our undergraduate and graduate programs are offered on campus sites throughout
the southeast and around the world. It really is true: The sun never sets on the Troy
University College of Education and Behavioral Sciences!
