Our Faculty & Staff

The faculty in the School of Education participate in scholarship and research that play important roles in improving the greater educational community. The School’s professors are acknowledged leaders in their fields, both nationally and internationally. Education and counseling faculty stay in routine contact with other William & Mary professors and with educators in the field. This cross-disciplinary interaction not only keeps curriculum content both rich and current, it leads to new ideas, which in turn lead to breakthroughs in understanding and methods. The results: more effective teaching and more incisive learning. 

Highly cited publications across the School of Education demonstrate the global reach and impact of our research across all departments and programs, including topics such as giftedness in diverse contexts, cultural competence in multicultural counseling, distributed leadership and school improvement dynamics, teacher self-efficacy and student learning outcomes, transformative learning in STEM Education, moral injury and mental health in veterans, and child and adolescent mental health assessment tools.

In 2025, the School of Education’s research expenditures reached $12.8 million, growing from $5.9 million in 2021. As a major driver of institutional performance in research productivity, the School of Education plays a vital role in William & Mary’s R1 classification.
