Executive EdD in K-12 Administration


The Executive Ed.D. in K-12 Administration offers an alternative to the traditional delivery model for the doctorate degree without sacrificing the quality education historically associated with The College of William and Mary. Courses are taught primarily by regular School of Education faculty members, in a format that better meets the needs of working practitioners and is designed for educators with Master’s Degrees who are currently in administrative roles. This format allows students to earn their Ed.D degree in two and a half years!

The Format


The program includes two and a half years of coursework, delivered in summer sessions, weekends, and distance formats, as well as applied dissertation research. The three week summer sessions are provided at W&M’s campus in Williamsburg during years one and two.

During the Fall and Spring semesters, students will attend courses over 4 weekends per semester - 2 weekends per course. Courses begin on Saturday morning and run through Sunday afternoon.

Fall and spring courses utilize both the Williamsburg and Washington DC campuses and include additional online or distance modules for each course.

The Dissertation


A practitioner dissertation model integrates dissertation content and preparation into regular course delivery throughout the program to allow completion of the degree in less than three years.

The Program of Studies


Total Hours: 48 (minimum)
