Program Info

The Department of Teaching and Learning continues a historic legacy of preparing you to make a difference in the lives of students in Baltimore and beyond. When Coppin was founded in 1900, it had one program designed to prepare African-American elementary school teachers. Coppin State set rigorous standards for our undergraduate programs in early childhood education, elementary education and special education, which are reflected in each program’s accreditation by the Council for the Accreditation of Educator Preparation (CAEP), and approval from the Maryland State Department of Education (MSDE). Coppin State stays committed to graduating teacher candidates who seek to be positive change agents in the lives of the students they serve.
