Doctor of Education
The Doctor of Education program exists to create exemplary educational leaders, through a Christian framework, and focuses on one of three concentrations of study: P-12, Higher Education or Leadership in Nursing Education. These leaders will be grounded in leadership theory, application strategies, consumption/production of research, collaboration, data-driven decision making, and the blending/balancing of knowledge, ethics, and faith in the overall leadership process. The three-year program prepares graduates to engage in leadership, collaboration, decision-making, research, and reform initiatives in various educational sectors.
Note: All candidates interested in pursuing certification as a superintendent through the doctoral program should review the and other resources on the College of Education home page.
