The mission of the Ed.D. program in Educational Leadership and Administration is to prepare superintendents and other educational leaders to be informed, proactive and reflective change agents to improve public schools for the benefit of all students, particularly in southeastern North Carolina. This is a program primarily for those with K-12 public school leadership experience and/or who see themselves in K-12 public school system-wide leadership roles.

Information sessions will be held to discuss   the program and to answer your questions.

Please contact John Fischetti with any questions regarding the program.
