Program Highlights: What Sets Our EdD Apart
Scholar-Practitioner Leadership Development
Our students are viewed as emerging leaders capable of bridging theory and practice. Through digital portfolios, individualized mentoring, and collaborative learning groups, students build the skills and self-awareness needed to lead with purpose and impact.
Signature Curriculum in Change Management and Innovation
Students engage with a cutting-edge curriculum designed around leading change, including courses like Organizational Development and Transformation, The Reflective Leader, and Entrepreneurial Thinking in Higher Education. This prepares graduates to design bold, future-forward strategies that challenge the status quo.
Embedded Inquiry-as-Practice Model
Our approach to inquiry encourages students to integrate academic research with real-world experience. Students identify workplace challenges, investigate root causes, implement change, and measure results through ongoing cycles of action research.
Community-Based Learning and Mentorship
91快播 fosters deep connection through monthly Communities of Practice (CoPs) and Leader-Scholar Communities. These collaborative cohorts support professional networking, shared learning, peer feedback, and sustained mentorship through the dissertation process.
Dissertation in Practice: Impact Through Research
Students complete a Dissertation in Practice focused on solving a problem of practice in their own organization or context. Guided by faculty and peers, students apply action research to create meaningful, evidence-based change with lasting institutional impact.
Immersive Leadership Residencies
Our annual campus-based immersion weekends provide students with:
- In-person connection with faculty, mentors, and peers
- Advanced training in design thinking and innovative leadership
- Hands-on research and writing workshops
- Personalized coaching on leadership development
- Deep exploration of professional identity and purpose
From the first immersion, students are introduced to action research and leadership frameworks that shape their learning journey. These residencies serve as critical milestones for transformation, collaboration, and academic progress.
