Lewis University - College of Education

The College of Education offers degree programs and workshops for undergraduate and graduate students, as well as working practitioners. The majority of our full-time faculty teach both undergraduate and graduate courses. All programs are offered on our main campus in Romeoville.

Selected graduate programs are offered at our Tinley Park and Shorewood campuses, in Chicago and at several other local school districts in the Chicago suburbs for the convenience of working adults.

Faculty practice our philosophy of “Developing Learning Communities” in their classrooms and with relationships with area school districts. The College has worked with over 50 school districts in seven counties encompassing over 130 schools during the last three years, providing students with a wide variety of clinical, student teaching, intern and practicum placement opportunities.

Accredited by the National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCATE), the College updates existing programs as needed in accord with the Illinois State Board of Education standards. Additionally, programs such as the accelerated Master of Arts with Elementary Education Teacher Certification and a Master of Education in Curriculum and Instruction, Instructional Technology have been developed to meet local and national trends in the education profession.
