This fully online, comprehensive Higher Education EdD program offers a dynamic and flexible pathway for aspiring leaders in higher education. Our affordable EdD program is designed for working professionals and combines rigorous academic coursework with practical, real-world applications. The curriculum allows you to explore two-year colleges, organization and administration, higher education finance, legal issues, and social justice, ensuring you’re well-equipped to meet the diverse needs of your students. Coursework in practitioner inquiry and a final capstone project will transform you into a scholar-practitioner, giving you the tools you need to improve higher education practice and level up your career.

This program offers a capstone project rather than a dissertation, giving future deans, presidents, and directors the opportunity to tackle real-world issues. Applicants are required to have earned a master’s degree in any field to be eligible for admission. However, it is highly recommended that applicants have at least three years of professional experience in higher education administration.
