The education program at Trinity produces incredible teachers—because it’s more than just pedagogy and the classroom. The Christian perspective prepares teachers to cultivate relational peace, educational equity, and justice for all children and to impact every student’s life through excellence in teaching.

Trinity’s emphasis on its education programs was recently recognized by College Factual, which named Trinity’s English education degree among its “most focused.” According to College Factual, “Schools that focus their resources on a specific field may provide you with a better education in this area than those that do not. The Education students at these colleges represent the largest percentage of the student body, making these excellent school choices for students who desire a laser-focused education in a specific subject.”

College Factual also honored several other education degree programs at Trinity for their focus, including:

–Education

–Mathematics Education

–Chemistry Education

–Arts Education

College Factual honored Trinity in multiple other categories, including as a “Best Value” for special education.

Trinity’s bachelor’s and master’s degrees in psychology and clinical mental health counseling were also highly ranked.

To determine its rankings, College Factual analyzed almost 5,000 colleges and universities in the United States. Schools were assessed across 1,784 different majors & concentrations, 60+ different and four degree levels to come up with what amounts to over 800,000 distinct lists to help students find the best-fit college for them.
