Welcome to the College of Education's Office of Candidate Services and Field Experience! The mission of this office is to serve as a resource for students throughout their program of study. Beginning with the introductory freshman course, the Office of Candidate Services and Field Experience works with professors to ensure appropriate field based experiences for the potential teacher education candidate. The office continues in this role all the way through the culminating internships. Admission to teacher education, subsequent academic counseling, and careful monitoring of the progress of all teacher education candidates are important parts of the mission of this office. Records are rigorously maintained and application for the initial licensure is made through this office upon completion of the candidate's program of study.

The faculty and staff of the Office of Candidate Services and Field Experience are committed to making all phases of the educational experience as enjoyable as possible for students and faculty. To this end, we welcome students in our offices because students and their needs are our priority.
