Teachers College, the graduate and professional school of education for Columbia University in New York City, starts its 125th anniversary celebration today!
Teachers College is known for many firsts, including the yellow school bus and the Happy Birthday song (you can read about more of them here). The one that I’m most excited about, however, is the Master of Science program in Diabetes Education and Management. Teachers College offers the nation’s first interprofessional graduate degree in diabetes education and management, and it is solely online (which is almost a first for TC). Nurses, dietitians, pharmacists, physicians, exercise scientists and professionals from many more disciplines can come together to study diabetes in depth, share experiences, and learn with and from each other.
Happy Birthday, Teachers College!
