Make a difference in the classroom...

and in the lives of your students.


With a degree in education, you can inspire, open minds and change lives. At Ottawa University, we provide the knowledge and skills you need. School administrators say our education graduates “interview well, can clearly articulate their knowledge and abilities, are technology savvy, and have strong leadership skills.”

At Ottawa University, you benefit from our partnerships with local schools. Our students are observing and student teaching in outside classrooms sooner than education students at other colleges and universities. Take part in programs like Teachin’ Tots, Youth Friends and more.
