Graduate Education Programs at Christian Brothers University aim to engage current and future educators in a self-reflective process of lifelong learning characterized by wisdom, integrity, humility, generosity, creativity, and leadership. We equip educators with skills and values rooted in the LaSallian traditions, enabling them to collaborate effectively in dynamic educational environments. At Christian Brothers University, we prepare our candidates for leadership roles in their classrooms, schools, and other environments that center learning.
