Welcome

We're pleased to share compelling evidence why our graduates are some of the most sought after in Oregon and the Northwest. Once you read our Conceptual Framework (see graphic and linking poster, right), ourcommitment to "Connecting Teaching and Learning" both in WOU classrooms and in schools will be clear. We offer full-time and part-time undergraduate programs and a full spectrum of age levels and content areas. For high school and special education areas, graduate level programs are available days, evenings and online. In addition to programs in health and physical education, the college offers the state's only four-year degree in American Sign Language (ASL) Studies and ASL/English Interpreting, as well as a graduate program in rehabilitation counseling. On behalf of our dedicated faculty and staff, I applaud your interest in our professions. Every day teachers, health and exercise science professionals, sign language interpreters, and rehabilitation counselors make positive differences in the lives of others.
- Hilda Rosselli, Dean
