Acquire advanced knowledge and skills in a program designed for professional adults
Alvernia University’s Ph.D. in Leadership program uses a robust interdisciplinary curriculum within a values-based framework to prepare students to lead organizations and communities in today’s diverse society. Designed for professional adults in a hybrid delivery format, the program provides scholar-practitioners the expertise to teach, publish, consult and lead.
The doctoral-level preparation comprises research methods and design, leadership and organizational theory, and a focus in three areas of concentration (corporate, community and education), equipping students with knowledge and skills in high demand in a dynamic global workplace.
With three semesters a year, the Ph.D. program can be completed at a faster pace than most traditional programs. Classes are delivered in a hybrid format, alternating in-seat and online.
