Many research opportunities are available to students in the Division of Educational Leadership. Our faculty are engaged in a range of research activities and involve our students to broaden their academic experience through discoveries at all stages of the research process. Topics of research include the intersection of digital technologies and media with the beliefs and knowledge of PK-12 learners, candidates, in-service teachers, and university faculty and more!
