    School:
    • The Warner Graduate School of Education and Human Development is part of the University of Rochester, one of the world's leading research-intensive universities. At the Warner School, we believe that education can transform lives and make the world more just and humane. This vision informs our teaching, research, and service as a research school of education, as we strive to:
    • PREPARE
    • practitioners and researchers who are knowledgeable, reflective, skilled, and caring educators, who can make a difference in individual lives as well as their fields, and who are leaders and agents of change;

    Our diverse work in each of these domains is informed by the following underlying beliefs: the improvement of education is in pursuit of social justice; development and learning shape and are shaped by the contexts in which they occur; the complexity of educational problems requires an interdisciplinary and collaborative approach; and wise practices are grounded in research and theory, just as useful theory and research are informed by practice.
