School of Education
Dan W. Butin, Dean
"Education, authentic education, is powerful, passionate, and transformational. We strive to develop educators who have an abiding commitment to the youth they teach, and a never-satiated thirst for their own lifelong learning."
Merrimack's School of Education offers dynamic, responsive and focused programs that prepare you for success in the classroom. Our faculty are experts in their fields, with extensive scholarly and PreK-12 experience. Our graduates are teachers and leaders who collaborate, reflect and make an impact. We emphasize:
Deep learning. Education is transformational. Our classrooms, our courses and our passion are all grounded in the knowledge that learning matters.
Bringing theory to life. Knowledge and practice must inform each other. We connect books with classrooms and ideas with actions.
Making a difference. Education can change our classrooms, our schools and our communities. We prepare educators who understand that schools play a key role in a diverse and democratic society.
At Merrimack, you'll also benefit from a foundation in the liberal arts and sciences from our Catholic, Augustinian tradition and values.
