College of Education (COE) Ambassadors are exceptional undergraduate students who represent their major, the College of Education, and the University of North Texas. Ambassadors serve as peer mentors by offering advice and insight to current COE students through office hours and Student Advising Office initiatives. They are also expected to maintain strong knowledge of the College of Education, UNT, and provide leadership and support to prospective students, families, alumni, donors, and students across all COE majors.
 
Ambassadors share their experiences in the College of Education with prospective students, current UNT students, alumni, the UNT Denton community, and develop skills in problem solving, team building, interpersonal communications, promoting diversity and public speaking — all highly sought after skills in today's workforce.
