Welcome to the Department of Educational
Leadership and Policy Studies. The department offers programs
and courses for students interested in working in a wide
range of organizational, urban, multicultural, and international
contexts of education and training. Academic preparation
focuses on educational leadership, management, planning,
design, evaluation, policy development and analysis, and
instruction. In terms of the mission of the College, the
Department is responsible for incorporation of educational
foundations, multicultural, and/or general methodology studies
into professional education programs. The Department is the
primary source of the professional studies component.
The Department of Educational Leadership is substantially
directed toward masters and doctoral level preparation,
but also offers undergraduate certificate programs, and
coordinates the undergraduate and graduate professional
education, educational foundations courses, and core courses
which are part of the required common preparation of teacher
education.
The department’s faculty members, all with terminal degrees and substantial and diverse academic and practical experience, offer students a rich opportunity for study and general research in many of today’s most interesting and challenging areas of education.
