      • The University of California, Berkeley School of Education, or the Berkeley School of Education (BSE), is one of fifteen schools and colleges at the University of California, Berkeley, a public research university in Berkeley, California. The BSE specializes in teacher training and education research.
      Prior to its name change in June 2022, the school was known as the Graduate School of Education (GSE).


      Location


      The School of Education is located in Berkeley Way West in Downtown Berkeley, after previously occupying the east wing of Tolman Hall, located in the northwest area of the UC Berkeley campus. Tolman Hall was deemed seismically unfit and is slated for demolition. The School of Education shares the Berkeley Way West building with the UC Berkeley School of Public Health and the Department of Psychology.


      History



      The school traces its roots back to 1889, when the Regents of the University of California announced "the intention... to establish a course of instruction in the science and art of teaching." The B.A. in Education was first offered by the College of Letters and Science in 1892, followed by the establishment of the Department of Education (which would be included as a unit of the Graduate Division) in 1900. In 1913, the UC Board of Regents formally established the Graduate School of Education, with educator Alexis F. Lange presiding as the school's first dean.
      Over the next few decades, Doctoral, Master's, and Credential programs were developed, along with other notable research initiatives, programs, fellowships, and institutes. Among these programs and institutes was the National Writing Project (NWP), which was founded in 1974 as the Bay Area Writing Project (BAWP).
      On June 23, 2022, the Graduate School of Education was renamed the Berkeley School of Education to more "accurately [reflect its] mission of equity-focused education at all levels."


      Programs


      The school has Master's Degree and Ph.D. programs which are contained within three Areas of Study (with the exception of LEEP, which is a schoolwide program) and grouped by Degree and Credential objectives. All four Credential programs include an M.A. degree. All graduate programs stress the integration of theory with practical application. Researchers and classroom professionals work together to develop solutions to the grand challenges in education that require collaborative efforts across disciplines.
