Doctor of Education, Instructional Leadership Concentration: 48-Hour Program of Studies

The following presents a typical strategy for completing the requirements within LMU’s 48-Hour Doctoral Program of Studies, which is designed for those candidates entering the program with a master’s degree plus 30 hours or an EdS degree outside of LMU. This plan should be used with advice from the candidate’s major professor. Courses on the plan may be scheduled during terms other than those indicated. This possible plan reflects required core, research, and primary concentration coursework and is not an instructional leadership licensure program.
