Education Programs

Concordia University, Nebraska's tradition of equipping educators for their vocations has remained strong since our first day of classes in 1894 when professor George Weller and the inaugural class of 13 students were living and learning together in Founders Hall. 

Today, Concordia's education department offers more than 20 undergraduate and graduate programs and endorsements that are accredited by the country's top accreditation bodies.
