Program Description
The Science Education Leadership (SEL) program offers Ph.D., M.Ed. and certificate options.

Skills are developed in data-driven decision making, systematic and continual improvement, and leading dynamic organizations. Students also explore school-based leadership issues in science education. Internship experiences in Science Education Leadership include working with a practicing scientist in a research setting and interacting with school leaders on the state and local level who directly and indirectly impact science education.
