Venue description

The Department of Educational Leadership is a result of the merging of two departments, Educational Administration and Secondary and Higher Education. The department was formed in 2006 and is the largest graduate department at Texas A and M University-Commerce. The department houses two doctoral programs, six masters programs, one undergraduate program, nine certification programs, and two graduate certificate programs. The department is dedicated to addressing the needs of its diverse student population through the offering of courses in modes that are mindful of time, geographic, and economic constraints placed on these students. In response to this obligation, a number of courses throughout the department have been modified to online or web-enhanced formats. Additional courses are adapted for online delivery where appropriate to maximize accessibility for students and to alleviate barriers restricting enrollment in traditional courses. The Department of Educational Leadership graduates more than 400 students each year and produces more than 15,000 semester credit hours (SCH).

Whether students are a new or returning student, residential living and learning professional staff, along with Resident Assistants (RAs), resident hall association, desk staff, and office personnel will help students get to know other students, learn their way around, and get involved in campus life. They encourage students to become involved in their community. The students on campus represent a wide array of backgrounds, cultures, life-styles and attitudes. The on-campus residences provide a rich and unique opportunity for students to learn more about their self and others.
