The primary objective of the Teacher Education Department is the preparation of teachers for
grades K-6. Endorsements available through the Teacher Education Department include Library Media Specialist (PreK-12) and Reading Specialist (PreK-12). ESOL is also provided through the Master of Science in Education as an emphasis area that leads to an endorsement.

The department is organized and staffed: (1) to provide professional preparation for teaching elementary school
and secondary school, for Library Media Specialist licensure, Reading Specialist licensure, and for master's degrees in education; (2) to extend assistance to schools and related professional groups through research, surveys, and consultative services; and (3) to cooperate with local,
state, regional, and national agencies in working toward
improving education.

The Teacher Education Department aligns its programs with the Fort Hays State University Teacher Preparation Program Mission:

Fort Hays State University prepares professional educators in a liberal education that combines an appreciation for pedagogical theory and research in a supportive environment for diverse learners. The professional educator integrates technology in the learning experience, uses multiple assessment and diagnostic techniques, and utilizes reflection as a tool for self-growth while
assuming a professional role within the organizational system of the school.
