Doctoral (Ph.D.) Program in Leadership Studies (DPLS)
The Doctoral Program in Leadership Studies is based on the Jesuit tradition of educating the whole person. The interdisciplinary Ph.D. degree program is designed for working professionals across a range of professions, including education, health care, social services, church, government, law enforcement, and business. For more than twenty years the program has been a place where critical thought and moral conviction meet the questions of humanity.
In the Jesuit tradition, the doctoral program strives to provide a learning community in which students can develop the personal qualities of self-knowledge, self-acceptance, a restless curiosity, a desire for truth, a mature concern for others, respect for human individuality, and a thirst for justice. The program promotes academic excellence and facilitates the strengthening of conceptual, scholarly, and professional competencies for use in leadership roles that serve others.
