NCU's online Ph.D. in Education program is suitable for learners who want to combine a strong base of theoretical knowledge with an individualized focus to conduct research in and about PK-12, postsecondary and adult learning environments. Ph.D.s in Education are found in many different roles in academia, industry and not-for-profit organizations, including educational consultant, academic researcher, policy maker, educational theorist, and faculty member or administrator in a higher education setting. The specialization in Instructional Leadership (IL) provides a solid foundation for learners who want to improve the instructional capacity of schools and increase student achievement. Effective schools are led by strong instructional leaders. Instructional leadership, not just by the principal but also by others in both formal and informal leadership roles, play a pivotal role in leading instructional improvements and reform to enhance student learning and achievement.
