Overview

If schools are to meet the needs of an increasingly diverse student population, they must be led by women and men passionate about the importance of schooling and capable of managing significant school change. Graduates of the Department of Educational Leadership are trained to rise to that challenge in K-12 settings. We offer a master’s degree in educational administration and a preliminary administrative service credential (tier 1) that can be earned simultaneously. The fundamental goal of education, we believe, is the success of all students. To achieve that goal requires informed, courageous leadership.
