College of Liberal Arts touch the educational experience of virtually every undergraduate at Texas A&M, whether through core curriculum offerings, advanced courses in majors across fields in the humanities, social sciences, or outside the classroom in transformational experiences such as study abroad, forums for practicing civil discourse, and outreach to a wide variety of community partners. Central to a Liberal Arts education is learning about all aspects of the human condition, past and present. We study how humans across the world behave; how their brains work; how they express themselves creatively in literature, language, and performance; how they make decisions; how they organize and conduct themselves; and how they see themselves and others. Our students graduate prepared for the workforce the majority of them will enter. Employers routinely express their desire for their new employees to be flexible, critical thinkers who understand other people and cultures, communicate effectively, and collaborate with coworkers to propose solutions.
College of Education & Human Development (CEHD) is not just a school for teachers, we are a school for leaders in education, business, sports, health and government. With almost all of our majors offering some type of student teaching or internship built into the program, you are guaranteed to graduate with real-world experiences. Although our majors may all sound very different, they all have a central theme of helping others and Transforming Lives. CHED continues the tradition of preparing professionals and leaders in education, sport, business, government, and health through programs in four academic departments: Educational Administration and Human Resource Development (EAHR), Educational Psychology (EPSY), Health and Kinesiology (HLKN), and Teaching, Learning and Culture (TLAC).The college manages programs for the preparation of certified school personnel as well as human service professionals in the private sector, state and community agencies. Majors include interdisciplinary studies (certification) EC-6, middle school, bilingual and special education; technology management and human resource development; health (including school health education, community health, and allied health); kinesiology (including physical education certification); and sport management. https://education.tamu.edu/
