Beginning in fall 2024, graduate and professional degree-seeking students at Vanderbilt University can enroll in certificate programs at Peabody College of education and human development enroute to earning their degrees. Whether students are just entering the workforce or are seasoned professionals, the new certificate programs in several fields will provide graduates a competitive edge to respond to urgent and emerging needs in education and human development.

On Monday, March 16, Vanderbilt officially moved all courses to online and alternative education to protect the health and safety of the community during the global coronavirus outbreak. During this transition, the university has put a priority on providing faculty with the tools and resources they need to successfully implement their courses online.

Vanderbilt hosted a panel discussion Oct. 27 at the Frist Center for the Visual Arts to mark 50 years since the passage of the Equality of Educational Opportunity study, popularly known as the Coleman Report. The landmark study served as the basis for mass busing and school desegregation efforts in the United States.
