Empowering Illinois Educators
The University of Illinois College of Veterinary Medicine supports educators in the state of Illinois.
Earn More, Lead More, Do More
A master’s degree can help you achieve your career goals as an educator, whether you want to increase your income, develop your leadership skills, or explore new opportunities in administration, research, or curriculum design.
We believe in the potential for future generations to change the world and strive to support opportunities for our educators to learn, grow, and educate our leaders of tomorrow.
As part of the Land Grant system, the University of Illinois was established not only to provide world-class education and pioneer research and discovery but to put learning and discovery into practice to benefit the health and well-being of residents and communities in every part of Illinois.
