Educational Practice

About

Overview Why Choose the Ed.D.?Our scholar-practitioners work as part of a dissertation team of 2-3 students to investigate a high-impact Problem of Practice (PoP). The research experience would encompass the scholarly process of conducting research, and possibly working with community stakeholders and reviewing extant data related to the Problem of Practice. We will explore solutions to the Problem of Practice that impacts the community and/or educational workplace locally, but we will also investigate national implications.About the UMSL Ed.D. ProgramStudents are admitted to the Educational Practice program from University of Missouri–St. Louis and simultaneously to a Learning Community of Practice that is formed around a central theme. Our learning communities typically begin during the Fall semester. Members of the learning community advance through the program together as a cohort and complete the degree requirements within 3 to 3 ½ years. Students enroll in approximately 5-6 credits each semester. A collaborative Dissertation in Practice (DIP) is the culminating capstone project.

The Educational Practice program from University of Missouri–St. Louis is structured to leverage the benefits of the collaborative dissertation model in which students engage in action research as part of a cohort.
