Info on the Ed.D. program at Creighton

For those interested in more info on Creighton's Ed.D. program, see below link.

The Interdisciplinary Doctorate of Education Program in Leadership is a major new development at Creighton University. The program is a flexible, online, interdisciplinary program which is intended to be a terminal degree program designed to provide graduates with understanding of the leadership practice, theory, research and policy necessary to develop organizations and people for a changing world.  In the tradition of a Catholic, Jesuit institution, students dialogue in an interdisciplinary environment designed to increase their understanding of how to work with, develop, and motivate others. 

The concept of leaders as stewards of an organization is emphasized during each course and promoted through interactive online learning experiences.  Self reflection is encouraged and incorporated into each course and eventually integrated into a personal statement of one’s leadership vision. The program culminates in a final dissertation. Because the Ed D. is considered to be a “practice degree,” students in the program are encouraged to consider their workplaces as laboratories for the educational experiences they encounter in the program.
