Educational Leadership

Coming from the teaching profession, you already understand the importance of strong leadership -- in the classroom, in the school, in the district and in the community. At Lewis University's College of Education our mission is "Developing Learning Communities." This includes equipping educators at every level with the resources they need to be effective.

Lewis' Master of Education in Educational Leadership prepares educators like you to transition into leadership positions. With this foundation, you could pursue a position in school governance, education research or public policy.

As a student in the Educational Leadership program, you will take courses such as:

  • Ethical and Moral Foundations of Educational Leadership
  • School Law for Administrators
  • School Finance and Business Management

The program also includes the State standards for the Principalship and the Special Education Director Endorsement.

The College of Education at Lewis University has earned NCATE (National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education) accreditation.
