NSOE Fast Facts

The Connecticut Agricultural College became the University of Connecticut in 1940. That same year, a number of "schools" were established including the School of Education. During the previous 20 years, teacher training was considered a "division."   In 1999, the School was named for Ray Neag, to honor him for his $21 million gift to the School.

The Neag School of Education consists of five academic departments including: Curriculum & Instruction, Educational Leadership, Educational Psychology, Kinesiology and Physical Therapy.
