Thank you for your interest in the Ed.D. in Learning and Leadership at UT-Chattanooga! We are currently accepting applications to the Fall 2010 doctoral cohort in Chattanooga, TN.

The Doctor of Education degree (Ed.D.) is offered by the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga in Chattanooga, TN. The executive delivery program is designed to prepare professionals to be leaders in public and non-public schools, state departments of education, professional organizations, and private corporations. The program provides learning experiences that address the issues faced in the management and administrative contexts of these organizations and ways to address the practical aspects of learning and leadership in their respective working environment. The program seeks to produce leaders who understand the world of teaching and learning and who can apply leadership skills to cope with change and to establishing direction within their areas of expertise.
The program will concentrate on developing leaders who can move forward with a new agenda of teaching and learning and can address change in educational areas as a dynamic rather than a static condition. The program incorporates coursework and practical application of skills in the workplace as a part of the process of fulfilling specific outcomes. The Ed.D. program centers on the mastery of core learning and leadership outcomes and reinforces an overall understanding of learning institutions -- their history and philosophy, missions and diversity, governance and administration, faculty and participants. The curriculum focuses on developing proficiencies that individuals need as they pursue the challenges of leading educational change. Major themes are: "How do people learn?," "How should we teach?," and "How should we measure performance?"
