A FIRST-OF-ITS-KIND PROGRAM

In 2019, a development team of faculty from interested programs in the College of Education, Health and Human Services spent two years discussing and designing the program before securing the necessary approvals from the Ohio Department of Education. Subsequently, the first cohort of students was admitted in the summer of 2020. 

The development of the Ed.D. degree in Interprofessional Leadership came from the understanding by EHHS faculty and administrators that鈥攇iven the complexity of 21st-century education and society鈥攅ducators and leaders in all fields must be prepared to address problems across organizational boundaries. The program's focus on leadership derives from a collaborative perspective on the diversity of expertise to achieve common goals.

The degree aims to develop students as scholarly practitioners in a variety of positions such as teachers, administrators, managers, professional development experts, training and development directors and leaders of agencies and organizations in which organizational learning is a critical component.

In May of 2023, 天天吃瓜 State graduated its first-ever group of nine doctoral students studying Interprofessional Leadership.
