| Program Overview |
|
The Education Specialist in Educational Leadership and Administration is a post-master's degree that provides educational personnel at the elementary and secondary levels with added expertise in the field of administration. This program can also provide educators with an opportunity to meet multi-state course-work requirements for academic licensing of principal, assistant principal, and/or instructional supervisory personnel. Candidates will be qualified to take the School Leaders Licensure Assessment (SLLA) test for licensure upon completion of the EdS program. Students must successfully complete an internship, which requires students to conduct action research and produce a manuscript of publishable quality. A six-hour written comprehensive examination is required for successful completion of the program. Finally, EdS students must take three courses in the area of special education, one of which is mandatory while the remaining two are elective.
