Program Description

The Master of Educational Leadership, M.Ed. program is designed for aspiring leaders who are seeking administrative certification and careers in leadership roles.  It is a 36-unit program offered through a cohort-based model.  The cohort concept has been used successfully by the University of Arizona's Educational Leadership programs for several years. Through this model, students are able to develop formal and informal networks to support them on their paths towards successfully completing their advanced degrees. The M.Ed. can also provide a solid academic foundation for students considering a doctoral program in educational leadership in the future.  The curriculum for this program is highly focused on leadership for k-12 educational organizations, but the coursework can be broadly applicable to many leadership positions across different fields and contexts.

Through this program, students will learn how to:

• Promote responsive, inclusive, equitable, safe and socially just educational environments
• Study theory and research to inform and guide inquiry and practice
• Draw from current trends in education and apply this knowledge to enact educational change
• Apply best practices to meet the demands of today's varying educational contexts
