EPPL-Executive Ed.D. in Higher Education Administration

» Return to EPPL Program listing  

The Executive Ed.D. in Higher Education Administration offers an alternative to the traditional delivery model for the doctorate degree without sacrificing the quality education historically associated with William & Mary. Courses are taught 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.

William & Mary employees in this program that are using the W&M Employee Educational Assistance program are limited to using the benefit for one course in fall and spring semesters and two courses in summer semesters.   The program reserves the right to limit the number of William & Mary employees admitted to this program.
