Ortega President Council of Graduate Schools On behalf of the Council of Graduate Schools (CGS), I am delighted to welcome you to the Tenth Annual Strategic Leaders Global Summit on Graduate Education. We are honored to co-host this year’s event with the University of São Paulo (USP), an international CGS member that has participated in the Global Summit since 2011. I would like to express my gratitude to Professor Carlos Gilberto Carlotti and Professor Bernadette Franco for their leadership throughout the planning process, as well as to USP’s Vice President, Vahan Agopyan, who first proposed the plan to hold this year’s summit in Brazil. As we begin, I would also like to give special thanks to Educational Testing Service (ETS) for its support of this year’s event. ETS is in an excellent position to contribute to our conversation about the changing nature of doctoral education—as an employer of a great number of doctorate-degree holders, and as a global research organization that closely follows trends in graduate education worldwide. The Strategic Leaders Global Summit: Ten Years and Counting In 2006, CGS and the European University Association (EUA) held a transatlantic dialogue in Salzburg to discuss reforms in doctoral education. It was this meeting that led to the creation of the Strategic Leaders Global Summit, which expanded to include master’s as well as doctoral education. The first summit took place in Banff, Canada, in 2007, and established principles to guide future global collaboration among graduate deans and other university leaders. Since 2008, CGS has partnered with a diverse range of organizations and universities to organize summits on specific, pressing themes in graduate education: Research Ethics and Scholarly Integrity (2008); International Collaborations (2009); Measuring Quality (2010), co-hosted with the Australian Group of Eight and the Deans and Directors of Graduate Studies in Australia; Career Pathways for Graduate Students (2011), co-hosted with the University of Hong Kong (HKU); “Brain Circulation” and Global Careers, co-hosted with the Technical University of Munich (2012); Graduate Education and the Promises of Technology (2013), co-hosted with Central European University (CEU); Interdisciplinary Learning (2014), co-hosted with Memorial University of Newfoundland; and Big Data in Graduate Education (2015), co- hosted with the National University of Singapore (NUS). A number of these theme-based summits have given special attention to doctoral education. In 2010, summit participants discussed a variety of international efforts to establish quality measures for the assessment of doctoral

  • In Christian Leadership
    DOCTOR OF EDUCATION IN CHRISTIAN LEADERSHIP PROGRAM PROSPECTUS SCHOOL OF DIVINITY 2017-2018 ACADEMIC YEAR PROGRAM DESCRIPTION The Doctor of Education (EdD) in Christian Leadership is a fully online, praxis degree. It is the highest academic degree offered in the theory and practice of Christian leadership. As an applied theological degree, the EdD in Christian Leadership intentionally seeks to integrate a Christian worldview with study in the fields of leadership, education, and the social sciences. Since leadership, education, and the social sciences are connected fields of study, rooted in a shared theory base; this program will enable students to acquire a breadth of knowledge across these disciplines and gain the skills needed to conduct doctoral level research appropriate to diverse educational, organizational, and ministry contexts. This document is intended to acquaint the reader with the program and answer many initial questions. Please feel free to contact the program director, Dr. Gary Bredfeldt, at [email protected], with any additional questions. PURPOSE The EdD in Christian Leadership program is a research-based, terminal degree, designed to prepare further and equip demonstrated leaders with research, teaching, management, and leadership competencies for executive-level leadership roles in churches, mission organizations, faith-based organizations, non-profit organizations, and Christian academic institutions. LEADERSHIP AND EDUCATION PHILOSOPHY With regards to leadership philosophy, this program is built upon an analytical framework that understands faith-based organizations to be dynamic and developmental. This program promotes a balanced model of Christian leadership that recognizes the importance of biblical values, inspiring vision, godly virtues, and attention to the details of venture management.

  • Doctoral Pathway Frequently Asked Questions
    Doctoral Pathway Frequently Asked Questions What are the different types of doctoral programs in education? Broadly speaking, there are two types of educational doctoral degrees: a Ph.D. (Doctor of Philosophy) and Ed.D. (Doctor of Education). A Ph.D. tends to be more theoretical, while a Ed.D. tends to be more applied. We sometimes refer to a Ph.D. as being an academic doctoral degree, while an Ed.D. degree is called a professional doctoral degree. Ph.D programs almost always have a thesis component as a culminating assignment. Ed.D. degrees usually have either a thesis or a major project as a culminating assignment. People tend to be more familiar with Ph.Ds than Ed.D. degrees, although there are some high profile Ed.D degrees around the world (e.g., Harvard has one). You’ll find that there are lots of university and college professors who have Ed.Ds rather than Ph.Ds. You’ll also find people with Ed.Ds and Ph.Ds working at the Ministry as well as in senior leadership positions at the Board level. Both are prestigious doctoral-level degrees. Why would I want a Ph.D or an Ed.D? If you want to be a university professor, you will need a Ph.D. or Ed.D. Many Ontario Colleges are also preferentially hiring instructors with a Ph.D. or Ed.D. An Ed.D. or Ph.D. might make you a stronger candidate if you want to work at the ministry, or at a school board, or as an educational consultant of some kind.
