The Educational Specialist degree (EdS) program offers you the opportunities for advanced study in instructional practice, educational leadership, and instructional leadership. This degree program includes 30 semester hours designed to extend and expand your level of professional competence beyond your current master's level program education.

You may transfer six (6) credit hours toward degree requirements upon approval.
