Welcome to Centers and Institutes

science girlsThe Graduate College of Education is home to five centers and institutes dedicated to responding to the needs of communities in Boston and beyond.  They are: The Institute for Community Inclusion, New England Resource Center for Higher Education, the Adult Literacy Center, the Institute for Learning and Teaching and the Center of Science and Mathematics in Context (COSMIC).  Each of these centers and institutes is connected to an academic department within the GCE and serves as a site for applied research and training.

Our award-winning centers and institutes provide enrichment programs for public school students throughout the state; promote the inclusion of people with disabilities through research and training; support higher education institutions throughout New England; and provide vocational and technical training for adults. 

With financial support from the Ford and Nellie Mae foundations, the National Science Foundation, the City of Boston, our alumni and friends, and other institutions, the centers and institutes are able to further the missions of the Graduate College of Education and UMASS Boston overall through research and direct services.
