Big Ten university, small college feel
CEHD is considered the "people college." With a smaller college, students are able to build a community and connect with faculty and staff. We help students feel like they're a part of a smaller community while they are at a large public university. It's essential that our students know they're not just a number, but rather an important part of our CEHD community.

How can we help?
Career services for students
CEHD has a dedicated Career Services team who works with students to connect them to their future careers. Career Services works with students through all aspects of the major and career development process, helping to prepare them to be hired by local schools, hospitals, business, non profits, BIG 10 college teams, and more. Students are working across the Twin Cities, Minnesota, the nation and even around the world, showing what the value of an education from CEHD has to offer for our students and the greater community.
Student-centered advising
Students are assigned an advisor at orientation and work with them through graduation. Advisors understand that students have intersecting identities and work to support them in a holistic way. Advisors help to explore potential majors and opportunities so that students gain the most from their time here. Students can ask about registration, completing their degree, find out about campus life, and University resources. Students are assigned a major advisor when they declare a major of choice; we call it a dual advising system.
Alumni
CEHD has a strong alumni network locally, nation-wide and globally. This allows students to build relationships, get jobs, internships, and real world experiences. Graduates make a real difference in peoples lives as educators and human service professionals. Our alumni are eager to give back to CEHD and make themselves available for mentoring and networking.
