The College of Education offers three doctoral degrees: Doctor of Education (Ed.D.) in Curriculum and Instruction; Doctor of Education (Ed.D.) in Educational Leadership, and the Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) in Education.
The Ph.D. in Education offers tracks in Counselor Education, Elementary Education, Exceptional Education, Hospitality management, Instructional Technology, and Mathematics Education. The Ph.D. in Education is a research-oriented degree appropriate for educators from school districts, businesses, industry, educational agencies, and other educational settings who need a strong research base in their careers. It is the intent of this program to be interdisciplinary, allowing flexibility for students who will work in research clusters and learning communities with faculty on education-related research. Programs of study can be designed for those educators who seek teacher education positions in a research university or research-oriented education positions in business and industry.
Doctor of Education (Ed.D.) programs are offered in two areas. The Educational Leadership program is designed for students who are interested in management and leadership positions in educational organizations. Professional experience and potential are important considerations for admission to the Educational Leadership Program. The second is Curriculum and Instruction, designed for those interested in teaching in a college of education, teaching a content field at the community college level, becoming a school district leader in curriculum and instruction, or performing instructional design tasks in military or business settings.
