Ph.D. in Education - General Program

The Ph.D. in Education Program by Walden University is devoted to educators with the passion for knowledge, and professionals who would like a more comprehensive approach towards their specialization. The degree, which is offered through The Richard W. Riley College of Education and Leadership, aims to develop the student's skills in educational leadership and independence. Students are challenged to address issues that are currently present in the academe, and are guided in creating possible solutions and devising the best possible decisions to be made to produce quality programs for the community. Educational theories are introduced, and concepts are practiced within the diverse degree program. This provides bigger possibilities for students to engage in designing their own program of study. Students may choose to create general, self-designed, or specialized program that will aid them in building their own educational framework. With the independent approach to education, there are limitless opportunities for graduates and educators who aspire to make a change.
