Program Description
- The educational leadership program offers
graduate studies at the master’s and
doctoral levels, plus administrator
certification programs for the superintendent,
residency principal, and residency program
administrator certificates.
- The master’s (M.A. and Ed.M.) and
doctoral (Ed.D. and Ph.D.) degree programs
offer a specialization in K-12 educational
leadership.
- Program faculty provide a balance and
integration of practical experience, theory,
and research and aim to prepare educational
leaders who function as scholar-practitioners.
- All campuses offer the educational
leadership master’s degrees,
certification programs, and access to the
state-wide doctor of education degree; one-year
residency is required for the doctor of
philosophy degree.
- The University’s educational
leadership program is one of 70
doctoral-granting programs nationwide selected
for membership in the University Council for
Educational Administration, a national
consortium dedicated to the improvement of
educational leadership preparation and
practice.
- The administrator certification programs
are organized around the national ISLLC
(Interstate School Leaders Licensure
Consortium) standards, which have been adopted
as the certification standards for Washington
State licensure.
- The goal of these standards and our
programs is to prepare educational leaders who
can provide effective leadership to promote
learning for all children in K-12 schools.
- Washington State University’s
innovative field-based principal and
superintendent certification programs serve
certification candidates in a cohort-based
program that promotes a close professional
network.
