How good is the University of Michigan Medical School?

Is the University of Michigan School of Education good?

  • Is it a good (or even well-known?) program? Any extra information would be highly appreciated.

  • Answer:

    (Disclaimer: I work there) A couple articles that might be of interest to you to address your question about whether it is well-known and the special emphases and strengths of the teacher education program: New York Times Magazine: http://www.nytimes.com/2010/03/07/magazine/07Teachers-t.html?_r=1 National Public Radio: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=120998319 Michigan (Public) Radio: http://twocities.michiganradio.org/2010/05/21/teacher-preparation/ A video... Congressional Testimony of University of Michigan School of Education Dean Deborah Loewenberg Ball (speaking on improving teaching in the U.S., including her position on teacher education): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KbFhEHbIA6g Hopefully, this will help with your own assessment of how/if the program's goals, priorities, and design fit with your own interests and priorities for pursuing a career in education.

The University of Michigan is an excellent school with highly respected programs, however, Eastern Michgian University (just "up road in" Ypsilanti), is probably more well know for its education program.
