Wheelock College

Our new college, named for pioneering early childhood educator Lucy Wheelock, is dedicated to preparing outstanding teachers, researchers, counselors, child-life specialists, and professionals who make a positive difference in the lives of many. We look forward to welcoming you to our community.

BU Wheelock faculty are engaged in meaningful research that expands our understanding of how people of all ages learn and develop. Our areas of research focus correspond with our four academic departments, but many of our faculty are engaged in multi-disciplinary research that reaches across departments and professional fields.
