The Doctor of Education in Rural and Diverse Educational Leadership will equip graduates to improve educational and community outcomes in the regions they serve. Many of these communities are rural and have diverse populations. Because of the historical influence of Southern Arkansas University, SAU is well-prepared to offer this advanced academic program of study focused on understanding the unique opportunities, meeting the distinctive challenges, and solving difficult problems found in this region and similar regions across America. Graduates of SAU’s Ed.D. in Rural and Diverse Educational Leadership will be equipped to bring transformational change to the organizations and institutions they serve.
