Title

Doctoral Program in Administration & Leadership Studies

Description

Indiana University of Pennsylvania's (IUP) doctoral program in Administration and Leadership Studies is designed to educate future school superintendents and college administrators. Admitted candidates stay together as a cohort group for three years. During an annual two to three day retreat, guest speakers, former doctoral students and professional consultants provide additional help and advice related to leadership skills and management techniques. The program focuses on budgeting techniques, communication skills, team-building, leadership theory, conflict resolution, implementing change, research, adult development, and case studies. The monthly seminars combine theory with actual projects that candidates are expected to implement in the workplace. The curriculum is designed to accommodate the schedules of working administrators.
