Research and creative activity designed to enhance our community and beyond.
The Teacher Education Department at the University of Nebraska at Omaha (UNO) is dedicated to the vitality of scholarly activity.
As a metropolitan university, the University of Nebraska Omaha benefits from diverse intellectual approaches. While our scholarship is led by distinguished faculty, it depends on the participation of our students who, while making intellectual contributions to scholarly and artistic efforts, acquire the knowledge and skills that prepare them to be successful leaders during and after their time at UNO.
