The Educational Administration program at Southern Illinois University also provides courses and instructional personnel for doctoral students who wish to concentrate in educational administration at the doctoral level. All degrees are CAEP approved. Interested applicants should direct inquiries to the admissions clerk of the department.

Such leaders should be thoroughly grounded in the knowledge base, theoretical models, research paradigms, practical applications, and ethical implications of their respective career paths.

We strive to provide a balanced mix of theory with practice. In addition to being excellent teachers, our faculty is involved in research as part of the larger scholarly community and in service with practitioner groups on a state, regional, and national basis. Nine full-time faculty members, specializing in K-12 administration, higher education administration, community colleges, student affairs, research methodology, and education foundations/cultural studies, provide the instruction for these programs. The Department also typically employs adjunct professors, who serve as practicing administrators in both the K-12 and higher education arenas, to provide a real world perspective to your academic preparation.

Our Educational Administration and Higher Education alumni hold positions of prominence around the world in every administrative position from school principal to university president.
