Terms & Conditions

Education is a rewarding field that gives you the opportunity to make a real difference. While many roles in this field lead to the classroom, there are plenty of opportunities outside the traditional school setting as well. Working in administration, curriculum development or taking on leadership roles can allow you to shape policies and improve the system from within.

Our education programs can help you elevate your knowledge and prepare you for a broad range of roles both inside and outside the classroom. You’ll gain not only the academic knowledge you need to have an impact, you’ll gain leadership skills and insight from professors with years of real-world experience.

At NU, you can also tailor your education to match your professional goals with a diverse selection of degrees and specializations in areas such as educational leadership, instructional design, curriculum and teaching, e-learning and more.
