    The University of California, San Diego and California State University, San Marcos are offering a new Doctor of Education (Ed.D.) in Educational Leadership. This cohort-based three-year (including summers) doctor of education degree is designed to enable education leaders to participate in a research-based program while working in an educational setting (more about the program).

    The Joint Doctorate in Educational Leadership, functions on a cohort based learning system. The cohorts accepted for 2005, 2006 and 2007 represent groups of great depth in diversity and professional experience. The students represented in the Joint Ed.D. program includes Superintendents, Assistant Superintendents, Principals and Assistant Principals, Program Directors at the Pre-K to University program level, Learning Specialists and School Counselors.

    The foundation of this program rests on the belief that the work of school leaders must always attend to the common objective of increasing student achievement. Learning to apply the effective tools of leadership requires the acquisition of flexible communication skills, creative decision-making capabilities, a collaborative approach to problem solving, and the confidence to take calculated risks. At its core, effective leadership depends on one's ability to advance the skills and dispositions of the adults involved in the instruction of students.
