Education reform has changed the face of the classroom, and today, more than ever, our school leaders are expected to deliver measurable results. JIU created its Doctorate of Education in K-12 Education Leadership program for educators with the passion, vision, and focus to not only meet these new challenges, but who are commited to excellence and affecting positive change. The prime objective of our EdD program is to graduate successful and influential K-12 leaders who are critical thinkers ? with exceptional knowledge, skills, and integrity ? who are able to apply theory to the creative and innovative solution of practical education problems. The EdD program prepares key K 12 education leaders who serve as teachers, academic department chairpersons, and professional development personnel; administrators, principals, and superintendents; education faculty at institutions of higher education; researchers within organizations that create, implement, and/or evaluate education policy; and entrepreneurs who work with schools and other learning organizations. 72 credit hours are required for graduation.
