Preparing for Effective Leadership

The Department of Educational Leadership offers courses and degree programs designed to help students to learn and apply the leadership skills necessary for effective leadership in today's K-12 schools. In addition to the Educational Leadership Unit, the Department houses the Educational Research Unit which offers graduate courses in research methods, statistics, and measurement in support of graduate degree programs across the College of Education. Our programs are guided by our mission to develop effective educational leaders and researchers.

We offer three programs: a Master's Degree in Education with an emphasis in Educational Leadership, a Principal Endorsement Program (for those who have a Master's degree), and a Doctoral Degree (Ed.D).

As you learn more about the programs by exploring the web we invite you to contact us with any questions or comments.
