Learning to Make a Difference.

Classroom

At Wheelock, we believe our students receive a superb education through a combination of excellent classroom learning coupled with valuable, real-world, field placements and practica. This integrated approach to learning will expand your intellectual abilities, knowledge, and skills — all essential to your personal and professional success and your ability to improve the lives of children and families, and society in general.

Wheelock offers programs through three schools: the School of Arts and Sciences, the School of Education and Child Life, and the School of Social Work and Family Studies. Whether you are drawn to Wheelock's undergraduate arts and sciences majors and excellent professional preparation programs or our graduate degree and professional development programs, your education will be built on the integration of theory and research with practice and policy; sophisticated problem-solving, critical reasoning, and oral and written communication skills; a strong grounding in human development; and a commitment to multiculturalism, diversity, and social justice.

We invite you to explore the undergraduate and graduate programs we offer in Boston, the U.S., and internationally. Know that, no matter what you choose to study or where, you will leave Wheelock a caring, creative, and competent person with exceptional professional knowledge, skills, and the confidence to apply your learning to make a difference.
