The Loyola University Maryland School of Education provides leading undergraduate, graduate, and continuing education programs that prepare effective, ethical educators, educational leaders, and counselors to improve learning for all children. Our nationally accredited and state-approved undergraduate and graduate programs equip our students with the knowledge, skills, tools, and support to become exceptionally prepared, social justice-minded educators and educational leaders.

At Loyola, we do more than prepare teachers. We shape accomplished educators. Our primary aim is to develop highly effective and ethical educational leaders and change agents who share our convictions about, as well as our commitment to, bringing about social justice by improving education for all children, especially those who suffer most from an inadequate system. Our commitment to education and social justice stems from a 450-year-old Jesuit tradition that values academic excellence, integrity, service, community, and discernment. We aim to educate whole persons, in intellect, consciousness, and spirit so that they leave here with the knowledge, compassion, and moral compass to lead the way for others. Our mission is to prepare educators who can bring about fundamental change for a student, a school, or a system.
