School of Education

Welcome!

  Greetings from Silver City, New Mexico and the School of Education at Western New Mexico University. Western has a long and distinctive reputation in the southwest for the preparation of educators and has been pioneering teacher education in the old west since 1893. Many prospective students ask me to give them solid, bona fide reasons for selecting WNMU over other universities.
 
The Western New Mexico University School of Education, located in Silver City, NM is proud to announce its "Top Ten" reasons for enrolling in its education programs.
 
Western is ...
1) Where the most gentle climate in the continental United States is experienced;
2) Where a nationally accredited teacher education program
(National Council for the Accreditation of Teacher Education-- NCATE) thrives;
3) Where students experience one-on-one advisement by full-time faculty;
4) Where multi-level and multi-discipline field experiences are a given;
5) Where you can enjoy a unique multi-cultural and bi-lingual arts/recreation community;
6) Where you learn with culturally diverse and qualified students and faculty;
7) Where students with children have access to quality child care at a nationally recognized Child Development Center;
8) Where big city life does not exist, but you are within a half day of Tucson, AZ, Albuquerque, NM, and El Paso, TX;
9) Where graduation requirements exceed state and national accreditation standards; and
10) Where... it's all about Teaching and Learning.
 
Give us a call, come visit, and I will personally see that you are given the courtesy you deserve.
