Educational Leadership M.A.
The Master of Arts degree in Educational Leadership provides opportunities for candidates to acquire knowledge about leadership in P-12, community college, higher education, or other educational settings. The program provides opportunities for students to develop in-depth understanding about leadership roles and responsibilities, working with external environments, professional development, organizational behavior, and contemporary educational issues.
An application packet, available through the program office (McKee 418), describes materials for admission review by the faculty: current resume, goals statement, and Professional Assessment Forms. Admission decisions are made throughout the year.
One set of materials may be submitted for review for admission to the M.A. and either the Colorado Principal or Administrator Licensure program. This intent should be clearly described in the statement of goals and noted on the application form.
The master's degree requires a minimum of 30 semester hours of graduate study, of which 12 hours are core learning experiences. Depending on career goals, students may choose from four concentration areas in the master's program: P-12 education, higher education and student affairs leadership, adult and continuing education, or an individualized program. Students may obtain the master's degree while also working concurrently on a principal or administrator license.
