Our mission is to equip scholar-practitioners as responsive and effective leaders of learning organizations, who proactively participate in professional and policy-making communities, and ensure equity and excellence in educational environments.  The Manhattanville doctoral program will prepare leaders to deploy evidence-based decision-making and conduct research so that they will inform and shape political, economic, equitable, ethical and socially responsible practices that are responsive to the complex challenges facing educational contexts.

The Higher Education Leadership curriculum, a concentration within the Ed.D., is designed for practicing and aspiring leaders seeking to further develop their skills to meet the varied challenges facing two-year, four-year and graduate institutions and communities today; it provides an exceptional opportunity to help shape educational institutions in the future. Uniquely, this degree offering is situated within the liberal arts history and tradition of Manhattanville College, and aligns with the College's mission “to educate students to become ethically and socially responsible leaders for the global community” by preparing change agents who can lead higher education communities during challenging socio-political times.

 

At its core, this three-year program of study supports and develops the scholar-practitioner, indicating someone who engages in scholarly activities while continuing in the role of an administrator. Critical to becoming, or sustaining one’s identity as, a scholar-practitioner, is pursuit of this question: What should an individual know and be able to do with knowledge in order to be effective as a leader in higher education? Enrolling Manhattanville's doctoral program affords individuals the space to investigate critical issues facing higher education, and enables administrators to apply scholarship to influence to field.
