DCEPS福尔摩斯学者计划

The American Association of College and 老师 Education (AACTE) is a leading voice on educator preparation and represents more than 800 postsecondary institutions. bet8体育娱乐入口 (ODU) and the 达顿教育学院 and 专业的研究 (DCEPS) are proud members of AACTE and the Holmes Scholars Program. This program is dedicated to supporting students from historically underrepresented communities, who are pursuing a doctoral degree in an education-related field. This is important to increase the percentage of students from underrepresented identities in not only doctoral programs, 同时也是未来的教员. 例如, less than 10% of all faculty within higher education identify as African American, Latinx, 以及美国原住民/阿拉斯加原住民.

The Holmes Scholars Program is designed to enhance the education profession by recruiting, 准备, and sustaining scholar-leaders who reflect and understand the implications of diverse perspectives in the nation's 学习 communities. 大家都说，这是最佳实践的典范. 霍尔姆斯学者计划提供指导, 同伴支持, and rich professional development opportunities to doctoral students from traditionally underrepresented backgrounds. The Holmes Scholars Program also strives to assist AACTE in developing an exceptional pool of diverse candidates for faculty and leadership positions within education.
