For educators planning to take the next step in their careers, the Master of Science in Educational Leadership program is an excellent choice
The program prepares teachers for a variety of leadership positions, including principals, associate/assistant principals, activities/athletic directors, deans of students, curriculum coordinators or Area Education Agency consultants. ÁùºÏ±¦¿â's reputation for quality extends across the state of Iowa, where nearly 70 percent of school districts have at least one administrator who holds a ÁùºÏ±¦¿â degree.
The part-time program is designed with the needs of working professionals in mind. In a convenient weekend format, students learn from faculty members who have extensive experience as administrators.
Courses are hands-on, project-based and use technology. They emphasize collaboration between students and faculty. Since each program is established as a cohort, students develop close relationships with faculty members and other students in their classes. This creates a tight network of individuals for whom to invite feedback and solicit advice now and in the future.
Students who already have a master's degree and are seeking licensure, may contact us for information regarding the Educational Leadership Specialist program.
Accepting applications for the Des Moines Campus Cohort: Application deadline is August 2.
