PhD in Education, Other

Olivet Nazarene University delivers its Doctor of Education in Ethical Leadership entirely online through the School of Education. The degree is intended for working professionals in fields such as business, education, healthcare, ministry and public service who wish to lead with integrity and bring about change. Learners study through case examples, conversations with respected leaders and applied projects. The emphasis falls on moral judgment, strategy and shaping organizational culture. Instead of treating the dissertation as a separate hurdle, the program folds it into the coursework, so candidates tackle genuine problems from their own workplaces while a cohort and faculty mentors keep them on track. The accelerated schedule accommodates careers already underway. New groups begin twice yearly, and an optional gathering called Ed.D. Day lets students meet instructors and classmates face to face.
