Explore the Spiritual Dimensions of Education and Leadership

Spirituality is an essential part of the human condition, and the knowledge you gain in this area will transform your capacity to lead. You’ll discover how faith sustains the mind, serving as an energizing and guiding force in the work and life of a scholar-practitioner. And you’ll examine the teachings of Jesus in the context of serving culturally diverse communities.

You’ll also dive into conversations with professors who understand the challenges and opportunities associated with working in a pluralistic society. By the time you graduate, you’ll be fully prepared to advocate for the intellectual, emotional and spiritual needs of the students and families you serve.

Discover the Power of Community

Thrive in a learning community that becomes family. Our EdD program is based on a cohort model, which means you’ll take your core classes with the same group of students throughout your time here.

Give and receive encouragement as you spend time together in online courses and mastermind groups, and gain wisdom from the cohort ahead of you during a one-week campus event each summer that addresses a pressing educational issue. The discussions you have will stir your heart and move ideas forward, empowering you as a purposeful servant leader.

Hone Your Skills and Sharpen Your Focus

Gain high-level research skills with the guidance of faculty who are published authors and presenters, and apply those skills to a problem-based dissertation that speaks directly to your interests. You’ll generate insights that lead to more effective and equitable schools, districts and learning systems. Along the way, you’ll immerse yourself in a concentration so you can maximize your knowledge and impact.
