Overview

The Educational Equity and Cultural Diversity program of the University of Colorado at Boulder aims specifically to prepare critical, equity- and justice-oriented researchers, teacher educators, and school district and community leaders.

With deep connections to teaching and teacher preparation, EBB faculty partner with schools, classrooms and communities to conduct research, support teacher learning and advocate for, and work in solidarity with, multilingual students, families and community members. We offer courses in language acquisition and biliteracy development, language ideologies and policies, critical perspectives on disability, sociolinguistics and the preparation of justice-centered teachers to work with multilingual learners.

Faculty also offer courses in special education methodologies, assessment and program development/implementation, and teacher education/learning. Additional related courses are available in other School of Education programs and in other departments across the university.

Careers

All graduate degrees prioritize K–12 bilingualism in the United States, with a strong emphasis on Spanish/English bilingualism. EBB programs are designed to prepare graduates to work and lead in universities, state, federal and local education agencies, schools, school districts, and community-based organizations.

Doctoral level preparation is research oriented and qualifies graduates for a range of roles, including faculty in university positions.
