Welcome message from our Dean, Dr. Michael J. Froning 

 

All of us here at the UAB School of Education are focused on achieving at the highest levels.

 

This means producing the best classroom teachers, counselors and administrators in the state of Alabama. The number of award winning teachers and principals who are either graduates or certificate holders from our School is impressive.

 

It means having outstanding teaching faculty, who are oriented towards modern methods of teaching, who use technology as an important tool, and who forge strong, positive relationships with students.

 

It means doing cutting-edge research in areas from early literacy to the exercise patterns of the elderly.

 

And it especially means that the friendly, informed service we provide our students, our school system partners, and the general public is state-of-the-art.
