About Teachers College

Creating a Smarter, Healthier & More Equitable World

Our name notwithstanding, Teachers College was founded on the proposition that education alone can’t correct our society’s inequalities — to maximize the life chances of all people, we must also support poorer communities’ physical and nutritional health and psychological wellbeing. Thus, fields such as education psychology, nursing education, nutrition education, special education, conflict resolution and spirituality and education were created at TC, and for more than a century we have prepared psychologists, nutritionists, health educators, speech pathologists and other professionals, as well as teachers and school leaders.
