EdD Doctor of Education

Opis i cele kształcenia

The IU Doctor of Education (EdD) is a professional doctorate for leaders who generate knowledge from and for the field. Unlike a pure PhD that prioritises theory contribution for academic careers first and foremost, the EdD centres problems of practice: school and university improvement, learning design, equity and policy implementation. You will complete structured doctoral coursework, defend a research proposal, and produce a dissertation that is both scholarly and actionable. Supervision pairs research faculty with practitioners who understand institutional complexity. EdD Doctor of Education is taught as one award, not a list of unrelated modules. The published length is 3–4 years, and the credit total is 54. Students move from Becoming a Scholar-Practitioner in Education through Becoming a Scholar-Practitioner in Education; Learning Sciences & Pedagogical Leadership; Education Policy, Equity & Systems Reform; Organisational Change in Education Settings; Ethics, Positionality & Professional Judgement; Improvement Science & Programme Evaluation, and finish on Doctoral Viva & Impact Dissemination. Each course has a question, a method, and a submission. In this field, students design a short sequence for a named group of learners and the criteria that would mark it fairly. Reading is a curriculum extract, an assessment specification, and an evaluation summary. The artefact a marker expects is a plan with outcomes, a task, criteria, and a note on bias. The award is built so that a graduate can do the following in practice: Frame and investigate problems of practice with doctoral rigour Apply mixed methods appropriate to educational settings Generate findings that change institutional practice and policy Teaching assumes the student can read a source, attempt a problem before the seminar, and revise after feedback. Attendance at live seminars is part of the design. The capstone or final course must use the methods of the earlier courses; a project that ignores them does not pass. This course does not confer a teaching licence, QTS, or equivalent registration. The pages for each course name the topics that are examined. Those topics are the syllabus. A brochure line is not a substitute for them.
