Welcome
The Beverley Taylor Sorenson College of Education and Human Development stands unique among Utah’s System of Higher Education Colleges of Education. For more than 110 years the COEHD has been the Flagship College at Southern Utah University.
The College has a rich heritage and foundation of excellence. It is made up of three departments: the Department of Teacher Education and Family Development, the Department of Physical Education and Human Performance, and the Department of Graduate Studies in Education. Collectively these departments provide dynamic and innovative programs that have a reputation for academic rigor, solid connections to current trends and professional practice, and a variety of employment opportunities.
A well-trained, highly qualified teaching faculty, relevant, practical, and cutting edge curriculum, and a focus on the individual prepares teachers, school administrators, athletic trainers, coaches and other educational specialists and practitioners.
The Beverley Taylor Sorenson College of Education and Human Development is fortunate to have three tremendous facilities that provide students with state-of-the art technology, equipment, and learning centers. They are the J. L. Sorenson Physical Education Building, the Emma Eccles Jones Education Building and Old Main. In addition the College has several established programs with school districts, educational and governmental agencies, and public and private businesses that provide students with field experiences, internships, service, and career development opportunities.
On behalf of the faculty and staff in the College I welcome you to Southern Utah University and invite you to become a part of our most extraordinary College. Please let me know if I can be of service to you.
Sincerely,
Prent Klag, Ed.D.
