Overview
The Educational Leadership program at Rutgers University covers issues of organizational and leadership theory common amongst K-12, pre-school, and higher education institutions, but with specific applications most frequently contextualized in K-12 settings.
Notably, the GSE’s inquiry-oriented curriculum will focus specifically on the individual challenges and issues our students face as educational leaders. Students will read and critique research, analyze and discuss case studies, participate in simulations, practice communication skills, and conduct their own investigations of meaningful issues and problems.
Features
- Students in this concentration will be challenged to understand and use research and data effectively in meeting the problems of practice, particularly those related to equity and social justice.
- Both current and inspiring school and district P-12 administrators are encouraged to apply for admission into the program however students who intended to work in New Jersey public schools are expected to be certified as principals.
Programme Structure
Curriculum:
- The Ed.D. culminates with a yearlong dissertation experience.
- The dissertation requires students to identify and investigate a problem of practice systematically using current literature, and inquiry methodology.
- Students are to write a final report that is presented publicly that may include a conference presentation, journal article or book chapter, or presentation to a local community.
- Students will have the option of working on their dissertation projects individually or in groups organized around key topics of interest.
