Master of Education in Educational Leadership and Administration

The Master of Education in Educational Leadership and Administration is ideal for individuals who aim to advance their careers by becoming building-level administrators in P-12 schools. Upon completion of the degree, students will be prepared to sit for certification exams and meet the administrative needs of P-12 students and schools.

The Educational Leadership and Administration program prepares students to become building-level administrators not only by presenting students with engaging material but also by emphasizing the application of ideas to relevant issues and current events. Topics covered in the program include principalship, public school law, public school finance and current issues in public education.

The program is offered as a full master’s degree and as a certificate program for those who already have a master’s degree but lack the coursework necessary to sit for certification.
