The Urban Education Semester

About the Impact of UES:

"I have solidified my drive to teach... I have a guideline to go by in terms of practical school experience and can work toward my goal with greater excitement."
- Joseph Bonillio, Class of 2002 (UES, Spring 2000)

The Urban Education Semester is an interdisciplinary academic immersion program, offered in both the fall and the spring semesters, which introduces students from all academic backgrounds to the field of urban public education. The program helps students discover that high-quality, effective education is possible in urban public schools. The program is open to sophomores and juniors through the Center for Interdisciplinary and Special Studies.
