The Education and Family Studies department at Snow College is designed to promote exploration and the development of career qualifications within the field of Family Consumer Science. Designed for majors and non-majors alike, everyone can benefit from our courses! We offer classes in nutrition and cooking, human development, sewing, personal and consumer finance, early childhood education, family relations, and more. Whether you choose to take just one or two classes for your own personal development or you decide to major in one of the many fields that fall under the Education and Family Studies umbrella, our professors are here to help you every step of the way. At Snow, we believe that hands-on learning is the key to student success. That's why our students spend time not only studying the textbooks, but actually putting those studies into action.

The mission of the Education Department is to provide future K-12 teachers with the knowledge, love of learning and commitment to service that will make them outstanding candidates for certification at any university in the country. The department’s goals are to introduce future teachers to the historical, philosophical, and cultural foundations of their chosen profession and to give them practical experience observing actual primary and secondary classroom operations. By carefully advising students in their selection of majors, lower division general education requirements, and elective courses, the department seeks to assure their success as they transfer to baccalaureate institutions and go on to enter the teaching profession.
