Our PhD programs feature the deep faculty mentorship and student community you’d expect from a top tier offering, but with the flexibility and convenience that’s unique to Lesley. Our programs allow you to begin your research earlier and complete your coursework over just three summer residencies.
But while they’re streamlined, there’s no compromise on rigor: as a Lesley PhD candidate, you’ll dig deep - conducting new and consequential research on a topic that’s important to you. You’ll develop rock solid research skills, produce an original dissertation, and make a personal contribution to the field of education research. You’ll graduate prepared to apply your expertise and perspective in a variety of fields, including higher education and human services.
