CEHD: Dean's Diversity Scholarship in Education
Give students from underrepresented backgrounds access to high-quality teacher education programs.

About this Project

By contributing to the College of Education and Human Development (CEHD) Dean's Diversity Scholarship in Education, you’re helping a student from an underrepresented background, for which the cost of a college education may be prohibitive, pursue a degree in elementary teaching or early childhood education. This scholarship ensures access to our high-quality teacher education programs while easing the financial burden of pursuing a college degree.   

By supporting underrepresented students through this scholarship, you are also supporting the college in its mission to diversify the teaching workforce in our Delaware schools and throughout our region. Prioritizing and fostering diversity within our schools directly impacts the education and development of our early childhood, elementary and middle school students. Research has often demonstrated that students show greater positive academic and social outcomes when they share an identity with their teachers and school leaders.
