History of the School of Education
The original charter of North Carolina Central University issued by the General Assembly of North Carolina in 1925 (Chapter 56, Private Laws, 1925) set forth an institutional purpose that included the training of Negro high school teachers and principals. By 1927, the institution had in place sets of "combination courses" especially designed for high school teachers (English and French or Latin, English and History, History and French or Latin, Mathematics and Science, Mathematics and History, History and Science).

In 1928-29, the Department of Education became one of the units of the College of Liberal Arts, and it offered six courses in professional education—expanding to 20 courses by 1937. By 1939, the General Assembly enacted a statute which authorized the Board of Trustees at North Carolina College to establish graduate programs. Majors included the Master of Arts degree in Administration, in Secondary Education, and in Elementary Education. In 1952 the first Ph.D. program was offered in Administration and Supervision, Elementary Education, and Guidance. Five graduates were awarded the Ph.D. degree before the program was discontinued in 1964.

The Master of Education degree in Graduate Elementary Education was established in 1954 replacing the Master of Arts degree which had been established in 1939. The Sixth-Year Program leading to the Advanced Principal's Certificate was established in 1960 but was discontinued in 1972.
