The PhD program in K-12 Educational Administration seeks to train researchers who engage in scholarship related to educational leadership and school organizations in the K-12 setting. Our faculty consists of tenure-track professors at various ranks and professors of practice with successful educational leadership experience as principals and superintendents. Collectively, our research and scholarship address issues related to school leadership, principal preparation, school and district improvement, school climate, student learning and wellbeing, and school-family-community partnerships. Many of our faculty also study education policy issues that impact these school-level dynamics, and many faculty study student populations that have historically been marginalized and underserved in K-12 schools.
