LaVonne I. Neal, Ph. D. - Dean
Lindy Crawford, Ph. D. - Associate Dean

The Department of Leadership, Research, & Foundations has added two cognate areas to its Master of Arts in Leadership Degree.
The two new cognate areas, one in P-16 Education and one in Research & Foundations, enable those wishing to pursue a masters degree without licensure to do so, with the option of attaining licensure later on after being awarded a master's degree within five years. The two new programs allow the degree with a cognate area focus and licensure to be completed in the same amount of credit-hours as the traditional degree.
The P-16 cognate will be offered starting Spring 2010 and the Research & Foundations cognate will be offered starting in the Fall of 2010.
For more information, see the updated Master of Arts in Leadership Education degree page.
