MUEEC Classroom

Marshall University's Early Education Center is a nationally accredited laboratory for the College of Education and Human Services at Marshall University.  The MUEEC promotes the development of social competency, communication abilities, thinking processes, feelings of self worth, aesthetic appreciation and independence.  The children actively participate in constructing their learning through a play-based negotiated curriculum rooted in problem solving. 

The Early Education Center offers two class sessions Monday through Thursday during Marshall University's fall and spring semester.  The Center's regular hours are 8:30 am to 3:30 pm.  The Center also offers extended sessions during the summer.

MUEEC Enrollment

Children ages three through five are eligible for enrollment; children must be age three by October 31st.  A waiting list is maintained for interested families.  Families may place their child on the waiting list by completing an enrollment form.  Because the Center is an early childhood laboratory and research based facility, the MUEEC aims to maintain a balance child population, including children from varied social, cultural and economic backgrounds, as well as a balance among genders and ages.  When enrolling children for the program we consider these factors in addition to the date of application.
