Doctoral program in leadership & policy commences in August

Niagara University will host several information sessions at three locations between Jan. 25 and March 5 to introduce interested candidates to its new doctoral program in leadership and policy. The Ph.D. program, which will be administered by the university's internationally accredited College of Education, will prepare doctorally qualified leaders to implement systemic change to further community goals and aspirations. It seeks to attract leaders in education and other fields who will disseminate advanced study and research among international, cross-disciplinary and diverse contexts.
