The terms for the Doctoral Program in Leadership Studies roughly follow the regular academic calendar of the university. The doctoral term during fall and spring semesters runs on a 16 week schedule. Classes are held as a rule once every two weeks with a few exceptions for hybrid (part online, part presence), single-credit, and retreat-format courses. Two-credit courses run over ten weeks and three-credit courses run over the full 16 weeks. The doctoral summer schedules have two terms: one two-week term and one 6-week term. Full course loads are completed within each term.

Here access to course schedules and doctoral term schedules from various years and semesters is provided. Schedules listed by semester only (e.g. Fall 2009 Schedule) provide the course offerings and dates as well as an overview of the weekly course schedule for that semester; schedules listed for the academic year (e.g. Doctoral Terms 2008-2009) provide the dates of the doctoral terms' academic calendar in overview.

Syllabi are also linked from the course schedules as they become available.
