Organizational change begins with one person. With an M.Ed. in Leadership and Policy, that person is you.

At the Carolyn A. and Peter S. Lynch School of Education and Human Development, we understand that our world needs educational leaders who are trained in critical reflection and are dedicated to improving equitable opportunities for students. During the M.Ed. in Educational Leadership & Policy program, students learn to assume or advance in leadership roles at educational institutions and in the greater community. Our graduates work to guide the next generation through education.

Lead Your School, Guide Your Students
