Baylor School of Education is one of only three Texas schools in the top 100 of the newly released list of 2016 Best Graduate Schools of Education from U.S. News.
Baylor School of Education advanced to No. 83, up nine places from its last ranking in 2014. To determine the rankings, U.S. News surveyed graduate education programs at 357 schools granting doctoral degrees in fall 2014.
Baylor School of Education is the only Texas private school in the top 100 on the education list. The University of Texas at Austin is ranked No. 10, and Texas A&M ranks No. 46. Seven of the 10 universities in the Big 12 are in the top 100.
“We are extremely pleased to see that the School has moved up nine places this year in the rankings,” said SOE dean Dr. Jon Engelhardt. “While this ranking does not address all the matters we believe are important for a 21st Century School of Education, it does demonstrate progress on a variety of factors. We are pleased for the national recognition, especially by our peers, for the graduate education programs we offer at Baylor.”
