The Department consists of ten academic programs along with many subprograms nested within. Our major areas of scholarly inquiry are art, art administration, dance, music, history, philosophy, applied linguistics, bilingualism, English and literacies, and social studies.

A conversation between Patricia Martinez-Alvarez, Professor of Bilingual Education and three Teachers (Stephanie Ubiera, Sabrina Poms and Ellieana Lora) about COVID-19, the transition to virtual teaching, addressing Black Lives Matter in the classroom, and centering the experiences of African American and AfroLatinx children in bilingual classrooms.
Each of our ten degree and five non-degree programs offer our students the skills and knowledge they need to thrive and assume leadership in today’s changing cultural and educational environment.
Beginning in Fall 2023, the Program in History and Education will be located in the Department of Education Policy and Social Analysis. Applications for admission for Fall 2023 should be made via that department.
