History
OISE/UT traces its origins to the founding of the Provincial Normal School in 1847. The Normal School evolved into the Toronto Teacher's College, which merged into the Faculty of Education in the University of Toronto in 1979.
The current OISE/UT institution was founded in 1996 as a merger of the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education and the Faculty of Education in the University of Toronto (which from 1920 to 1972 was known as the Ontario College of Education, U of T). In 1951, the Ontario College of Education offered the first adult education graduate course in Canada. FEUT was the preservice teacher's college offering first professional degrees in teaching. OISE was the graduate and research institution. OISE was a freestanding public degree-granting school before the merger. In 1965, the OISE introduced a masters and doctoral program in adult education. In 1967, OISE introduced the first graduate course in comparative studies in adult education, which was taught by J. R. Kidd. It is located directly above the St. George Subway station.
Academics
OISE/UT offers preservice Bachelor of Education degrees as well as graduate programmes in teaching, psychology, educational theory, history and administration, and Honours Specialist, technical education diploma, and Additional and Principal Qualification programmes.

OISE also offers a concurrent education programme. Applicants must hold a bachelor's degree to be admitted to the consecutive BEd.
