The Doctor of Education in Educational Leadership is designed to prepare key leaders in school districts and college or university faculty. The program's primary focus is the preparation of leaders who are reflective professionals developing vision and acquiring skills to reform, renew, and improve schools and school systems that cultivate democratic learning communities that value social justice and equity. The meaningful, critical, reflective study of organizational change leadership principles and practices is best realized when solidly grounded in students' own professional career experiences. Thus, individuals applying for admission to the Doctor of Education Program in Educational Leadership must have a minimum of one (1) year successful performance in one or more administrative and/or supervisory school leadership positions.

Classes are delivered using one or combinations of formats including web-based
instruction, interactive video conferences, and face-to face. Courses taught via IVC
will require attendance at one of our off-campus sites - TTU at Abilene, TTU at
Amarillo, TTU at Fredericksburg, TTU at Highland Lakes, or TTU Center at Junction. A
limited portion of the degree program will require travel to the College of Education
facilities in Lubbock, Texas.
