Faculty Research

Educational Administration faculty is a group of active scholars and researchers, addressing critical issues across the Pre-K-20 educational spectrum domestically and internationally. While contributing to theory and new knowledge, faculty research also seeks to inform policy and decision makers, and to improve practice. Our work, therefore, is disseminated in a wide array of venues including books, top-tier scholarly journals such as Educational Administrative Quarterly, The Review of Higher Education and the Journal of College Student Development and broadly distributed practitioner-oriented journals and publications, policy briefs, monographs, technical reports. The faculty is also actively involved in scholarly and professional associations at the state, regional, national and international levels as conference session contributors and proposal reviewers, association leaders, and editorial board members.
