Ph.D. / Ed.D. - Emphasis in Community College Leadership

Advance in your career by earning your Ed.D./Ph.D. in Education through Oregon State University's College of Education and Extended Campus.   

Overview

The Community College Leadership Program (CCLP) prepares faculty and administrators for leadership roles in technical and community colleges, higher education settings and similar organizations. The CCLP focus is on the application of quality research to the problems and opportunities in community and technical colleges. 

Participants

Applicants need a minimum of three years of professional experience in a technical or community college, or a professional field related to teaching, learning and/or leadership.

Collaborative Cohort Model

CCLP students enroll as members of a cohort with the goal of participating in an active learning community. The CCLP is currently enrolling its 17th cohort. Participants are working professionals in higher education settings from Oregon, Washington, and a variety of Western states. Program graduates already include presidents and senior leaders in most of the two-year colleges in the northwestern United States. Collaboration has been the key to both CCLP excellence and graduates' career success. A major professor guides each student through the program.

Off-campus Delivery/Weekend Format

Attend classes for one intensive three-day weekend per month at a conference center located at scenic Silver Falls State Park near Salem, Ore. This is an approximately four-year or 108-120 credit doctoral degree program.
