COE Campus
Creating Learning Environments That Support Our Bold Vision
The George I. Sánchez and L. Theo Bellmont buildings are the two primary spaces that make up the College of Education campus at UT Austin. In recent years, and through generous contributions from the college’s donors, supporters and the university at large, the college has seen significant renovations that enhance teaching, learning and community across our campus. Our spaces are the center of our community and put our students at the heart of the college, reflecting the fresh ideas, focused vision and renewed commitment to serving children, individuals, families, schools and communities across Texas.
COE Building Highlights
In 2018, the college began planning for the first comprehensive renovation of the Sánchez Building since it opened in 1975. The renovation transformed classrooms, lobbies, meeting areas and walkways into modern and welcoming spaces that foster discussion and discovery and reflect the caliber of our faculty and programs.
This warm and inviting space adjacent to the main lobby provides students a place where they can meet, collaborate, study or just hang out.
Home to all Texas Education student support services, including academic advising, career engagement, teacher preparation and information technology, the new Dr. Teresa Lozano Long Student Services Center is the heart of our building.
Located in the former Student Services Center, the Dean’s Suite has been upgraded so it reflects the college’s bold vision to reimagine education and still be accessible to the college community.
The fifth floor of the Sánchez Building serves as the hub for one of the college’s largest research enterprises, the Meadows Center for Preventing Educational Risk. The center supports educators with tools rooted in research that improve outcomes for all students, especially those who are at risk.
KHE’s graduate students can take advantage of a new conference room and collaboration spaces on the third floor of Bellmont and locker rooms have been updated with new lockers, seating, paint and lighting.
Housed in DKR-Texas Memorial Stadium, the Stark Center serves as home to the largest collection of archival materials related to the field of sport while also supporting humanities-based research related to health, performance and more.
