Instruction: Teachers College brings together a breadth of academic disciplines unmatched by any other graduate school of education within a single institution. Our name notwithstanding, the College, from its inception has focused not only on pre-K-12 classroom education, but also on adult learning, leadership, health, psychology, nutrition, movement sciences, art, music education and more. This vision of education (today embodied in 79 academic programs across 10 academic departments) supports learning that broadly enables the development not only of individual students, but of families, communities, cities and nations. Teachers College's 170 full-time tenure-track faculty includes some of the most nationally and internationally prominent and widely respected thinkers, researchers and practitioners in their various fields. Policy research is a major strength, with a core group of faculty members who have directly influenced national legislation or state legislation in early childhood education, community colleges, school integration, social services, school finance, national learning standards, charter school development and funding of national health programs. The College's Cowin Conference Center has helped establish the College as a national center for debates on these and other issues. The College served as host to a live and nationally webcast debate between the education advisers of the two former presidential nominees, as well as host of major addresses by the US Secretary of Education and two New York City public school Chancellors. TC faculty are also widely known for innovative curriculum development in academic subjects; health education focused on schools; nutrition education; organizational psychology; developmental psychology; and more.

Research, Training and Public Service: TC's current annual funded research expenditures are in excess of $49 million, with major funding provided by US National Science Foundation,the U.S. Department of Education, the Weitz Family Foundation, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, the Lumina Foundation for Education, and other public and non-profit institutions. TC places a major emphasis on public and community service, both in its research and in preparation of its students. The College's Office of School and Community Partnerships collaborates with a group of Harlem public schools to form a unique partnership supported by the JPMorgan Chase Foundation, focused on professional and curriculum development in the STEM disciplines (science, technology, engineering and math). Through this partnership, which is now anchored by the Teachers College Community School (created by the College together with the New York City Department of Education) as well as through TC's pre-service teacher education programs, which require two field placements per year in city schools, and the TC Zankel Fellowships and other programs, TC students spend significant time in public service roles.

Auxiliary Enterprises: Auxiliary Enterprises provides a convenient source of meals and lodging for students enhancing their College experience. Another major component of auxiliary enterprises is the Teachers College Press. Established in 1904 as the Bureau of Publications, the Press is one of the oldest and most distinguished publishers of educational materials in the United States. Since 1965, when the Bureau of Publications became Teachers College Press, its primary purpose has been to publish works that respond to, examine, and confront issues and change pertaining to education and the educational process. Over the years the publication program has included scholarly and professional works in all areas of education- from early childhood and curriculum to philosophy and critical theory; from assessment and school reform to parenting and social issues. It now publishes more than 55 titles a year with over 900 titles in print. Among the Press's authors are many of the most distinguished educators from throughout the world, including members of the Teachers College faculty.
