Historical Note:
Education courses were first offered in Northridge in 1955, with the establishment of the
college campus as a branch of Los Angeles State College. The Division of Education offered
credentials and master's degree courses largely in elementary education, and was the largest
division on campus. In 1958, when the campus separated from Los Angeles State College to
become San Fernando Valley State College, the Division of Education began offering
additional courses to train secondary school teachers. The Division was reorganized in 1964
to become the School of Education, with departments in Educational Administration,
Psychological Foundations, Elementary Education, Secondary Education, Social and
Philosophical Foundations, and Special Education. In 2003, the School of Education was
renamed the Michael D. Eisner College of Education in honor of a donation made by The Eisner
Foundation.
