Department of Teacher Education

Our goal is to nurture and prepare highly effective teachers who are competent, caring, and reflective.

The Simpson College Teacher Education Program nurtures empowered educational leaders who think critically, reflectively, creatively, and compassionately to practice inclusive, equitable, and transformative education. Our graduating teachers continuously grow professionally to build a socially just and enlightened society.

Simpson College prepares students to serve in public and accredited private schools at all levels and in many endorsement areas. It offers a bachelor’s degree program, a Master of Arts in Teaching (MAT), and a Transition to Teaching (T to T) program for graduate students seeking initial teaching licensure at the secondary level. See the graduate catalog for information on these graduate programs.
