Plants are shaped by cultivation and men by education. .. We are born weak, we need strength; we are born totally unprovided, we need aid; we are born stupid, we need judgement. Everything we do not have at our birth and which we need when we are grown is given us by education.
(Jean Jacques Rousseau, Emile)
The Bulacan State University College of Education came into being in 1967 with the initial course in Drafting, Machine Shop Practice, Automotive, and Woodworking, Enrolment was purposely limited then due to the policy of the College not to graduate more than what schools in Bulacan and the neighboring provinces could absorb. The first batch of graduates was composed of 17 members with Dr. Mariano de Jesus who graduate cum laude.
The Teacher Education Program evolved to become the School of Education which offered in addition to BSIE, the course Bachelor of Elementary Education (BEEd) with various fields of specialization.
