Educational Leadership: Online Master’s Degree

Master of education with an emphasis in learning and instruction and a focus in Educational Leadership

The department of Educational Leadership and Policy Analysis prepares and develops students to be reflective and inquiring professionals through course work, practical experiences and a number of leadership dimensions.

This program prepares the student to become a leader in the school community. The application of knowledge and skills garnered from the study of leadership is not limited to the role of principal. Highly effective schools have teachers who are truly "teacher leaders." They understand school-wide issues, and they have the personal skills to encourage, support and lead others. In so doing they enhance the educational experience for other faculty and students. They help make the school a better place for kids. The study of leadership in this program will help you develop the knowledge and competencies to become a teacher leader within your school even before you formally begin your first role as a school administrator.
