Bringing Research To Life
The University of Delaware is a dynamic Research I university. The College of Education and Human Development (CEHD) leverages these resources to discover solutions to the problems that face our schools and the challenges encountered by children, adults and families in the 21st century. We focus on applied research, to advance knowledge in the fields of education and human development.
CEHD is committed to diversity and social justice and much of our research focuses on improving the education, social and health outcomes of vulnerable and underserved populations.
Our students, in both undergraduate and graduate programs, work closely with faculty to develop research skills. Together, we are making a difference in people’s lives–designing curriculum, policies and programs that improve school instruction, developing effective professional development for teachers, setting policy for education systems and creating models of service benefiting children with special needs, seniors in nursing homes, individuals with mental health issues and families coping with poverty.
