Doctoral Program Mission / Goals
Mission Statement:
UM-Dearborn is dedicated to actively using our resources as a university to help address the
issues currently facing education in southeastern Michigan and our nation. The UM-Dearborn
Doctoral Degree in Education was created to provide the highly skilled change agents needed to
reach this goal. Graduates will meet the demands of education for today and the future through
engagement with community, transformational leadership, and scholarly practice.
Ed. D. Guiding Principles
 Community Engagement - Build real-world educational solutions through involvement with
local communities
 Transformational Leadership - Achieve positive organizational change through decisive,
equitable and just practices
 Scholarly Practice - Integrate theory and practice with best-evidence-based approaches to
address current issues in education
4
Program Overview
The Doctoral program at UM-Dearborn has four interrelated areas of concentration:
 Educational Leadership – will prepare with the leadership and administrative skills to
identify, solve and anticipate the challenges facing Michigan and our nation’s schools, and
institutions of higher education.
 Metropolitan Education – will prepare candidates to assume leadership positions in urban
school systems and other educational agencies as they focus their study on the historical,
political, economic, and socio-cultural context of communities and schools.
 Curriculum and Practice – will prepare candidates as subject area leaders or curriculum
specialists. This is a flexible concentration that may include any of the disciplines in the
Department of Education such as mathematics, science, literacy, social studies, early
childhood education, and English as a Second Language.
While each area of concentration represents a distinct area of scholarship related to education we
also recognize the ways that the issues represented by each area are interrelated and the different
perspectives can provide new insights and help to identify new areas of scholarship. To this end,
students and faculty are encouraged to work and think across these disciplines in creative ways
as part of their participation in the program.
Program Governance
The Ed.D. program will be overseen by the Ed.D. Faculty Advisory Committee. The committee
will be composed of a coordinator appointed by the dean of the College of Education Health and
Human Services and three College of Education Health and Human Services faculty members
elected by the Governing Faculty. The Ed.D. Faculty Advisory Committee will be responsible
for establishing admission standards, program requirements, conducting program evaluation,
reviewing student applications, approving new courses and approving the formation of
dissertation/applied study committees.
5
Coursework
Core Courses: There are eight core courses that all students must complete as part of the program.
The courses include four seminars that address the content focuses of the Ed.D. and four courses
addressing research methods.

Program Stages
There are three stages in successfully completing the Ed.D. program at UM-Dearborn: 1)
admission, 2) pre-candidacy & 3) candidacy.
Admission
The objective of the admission process for the Ed.D. is to build a learning community that
engages in active scholarship. There are three objectives of the admissions process are to ensure
1) that students admitted to the program are of the highest quality, 2) that there is a good match
between students and faculty in terms of interest, and 3) that we promote a learning community
within cohorts that is supportive challenging and sustained until program completion.
Application Requirements
To meet these goals admission decisions are based on a comprehensive review of:
1. A letter or statement of academic interests, professional goals and the applicant’s
personal/unique potential for contribution to a doctoral cohort.
2. A vitae describing professional and educational experience.
3. Official copies of transcripts from all undergraduate and graduate work. (Candidates must
have a minimum of an earned Master’s Degree from an accredited institution.)
4. Scores on the analytical, quantitative and verbal portions of the Graduate Record
Examinations (GRE) completed within the past five years.
5. Three recommendation letters from faculty and/or employers. Reference letters should
address the candidates potential and should include:
a. Potential for success in doctoral work
b. Potential for leadership impact in the field upon completion of the program
c. Other characteristics such as: collegiality, ability to complete quality work on
time, work ethics/habits, etc.
6. International students must submit scores on the Test of English as a Foreign Language
(TOEFL) or the Michigan English Language Ability Battery (MELAB) completed within
the past five years.
10
The Ed.D. Faculty Advisory Committee will review complete applications and invite in selected
students for a personal interview. During the interview, the applicant will be expected to
demonstrate evidence of personal commitment to earn a doctoral degree, evidence of personal
and professional goals that are aligned with the goals of the Ed.D. program, and evidence of
professional behavior. Meeting the minimum requirements qualifies an applicant for admissions
consideration but does not guarantee admission to the program. As stated above, the Ed.D.
Faculty Advisory Committee will determine admission on a competitive basis.
Pre-candidacy
The pre-candidacy stage of the program includes 1) identifying and selecting an advisor, 2)
developing and completing an approved course of study, 3) forming a committee 4) passing the
qualifying exams, and 5) successfully defending a dissertation/applied study proposal.
(Completing steps 5 require enrollment in EDK 990)
Advisor
Advisement by faculty is guided by the principle that one of the primary goals of the program is
to support the academic and professional development of the students in the Ed.D. program.
Faculty advisement should help the student develop a well-planned course of study; provide an
opportunity for discussion that informs and develops the dissertation or applied study project;
provide expert supervision of the dissertation research or applied study project; and provide
guidance and information which will foster professional development and allow for advocacy
efforts on behalf of students and their needs.
Upon admission to the program students will be assigned a first year advisor in their area of
study. The first year advisor may or may not be the academic advisor who supervises the
completion of a program. A first year advisor is responsible for explaining program requirements
and guiding students in the selection of first semester courses. This advisor will also talk
potential scholarship interests and help with the identification of faculty who share similar
interests. First year students should make the effort to meet additional faculty as it is expected
that by end of the first year of coursework, an academic advisor will be selected.. All academic
11
advisors, must be tenure track faculty members of the University of Michigan – Dearborn
College of Education Health and Human Services.
An advisor will also serve as the committee chair and be responsible for assisting in the
identification and formation of the committee to supervise the completion of qualifying exams,
proposal development and defense, and the final dissertation/applied study project.
Committee for Qualifying Exam & Proposal Development and Defense
Prior to completion of course work students will need to work with their academic advisors to
form their committees; these committees will supervise completion your qualifying exam and the
proposal development and defense. The committee must have at least three members: a chair and
two faculty members. The chair and at least one of the members must be tenure track faculty
members of the UM-Dearborn’s College of Education Health and Human Services. The third
committee member may be a faculty member from another unit at UM-Dearborn a UMDearborn lecturer, or someone from a PK-12 institution, community college, other postsecondary institution. All committee members must have earned doctorates from accredited
universities and be approved by the Doctoral Program Faculty Advisory Board and the College
of Education Health and Human Services Executive Committee. Committee members will
supervise and evaluate all work for 1) the qualifying examination, 2) proposal development and
defense, and 3) the completion of the dissertation/applied study.
Qualifying Exam
The Qualifying Exam is the first step in the process of moving from the pre-candidacy stage to
the candidacy stage of the program. The following are required in order to be eligible for the
qualifying examination:
1) Completion of all course work,
2) Selection and approval of a dissertation/applied studies chair
3) A formal application for candidacy filed with the CEHHS Office of Student Success.
The purpose of the qualifying exam is to demonstrate the breadth and depth of a
candidate’s understanding of an area of concentration as well as the ability to locate that area
12
within the larger domain of education. Students will prepare a paper that demonstrates the depth
and breadth of their knowledge of the theoretical issues and empirical research related to their
area of concentration and the relationship between their areas of concentration and the broader
field of education. The student’s Dissertation/Applied Study Committee will establish the goals
and guidelines for the paper.
Once the question/guidelines have been delivered, the student will have one week to return the
completed qualifying exam. The committees will reach consensus in evaluating the qualifying
examination as satisfactory, satisfactory with revisions, or unsatisfactory.
When the qualifying exam is passed, the student is then eligible to register for EDK 990 to work
on proposal development and defense.
Exceptions to these procedures will be considered if requested by the student’s
Dissertation/Applied Study Committee Chair. The Ed.D Faculty Advisory Committee must
approve all exceptions.
Dissertation/Applied study Proposal development and defense
The dissertation/applied study proposal will be developed and defended after the student has
successfully completed his/her coursework and the qualifying exam. Typically, the
dissertation/applied study committee that reviews the qualifying examination will also supervise
the proposal development and defense.
Proposal Development
The focus at this point of the program will be on the preparation for the dissertation or applied
study project. This culminating work may focus on a wide range of topics and/or research
methods. Whether the candidate decides to do a dissertation or applied study project, the work
will focus on a significant professional problem or issue and have the potential to contribute in a
general way or in the context of a particular educational setting to the improvement of the field
of education. The proposal must demonstrate a strong scholarly and professional foundation of
knowledge and the ability to apply the knowledge to rigorous study of an issue in the field of
education. The student must submit the dissertation or applied study proposal for approval
following the format and procedures established by the Ed.D. Faculty Advisory Committee. At a
13
minimum, the proposal will contain a description of the problem, a review of the relevant
literature, a statement of the question/s being investigated and a description of the research
methodology or approach taken to address the question/s. In general, the project being described
in the proposal will be a culminating project that is intended to inform and/or manage a current
problem in an educational setting/institution within. This project will have a unique contextual
focus that will be developed with the input from the student’s Dissertation/Applied Study
Committee. The proposal must also contain the materials that have been or will be submitted to
the Institutional Review Board to meet human subjects requirements.
The focus and content of a proposal for a dissertation and for an applied study are what
distinguish the two from each other. For a dissertation the focus of the proposal will be on the
research question and methodology used to develop an understanding of the topic of study. For
the applied study the focus will be on the application of theory and research to solve a practical
problem or to address a need of the community.
 To successfully complete the proposal for a dissertation students will submit and orally
defend a formal paper of sufficient length, depth, and complexity that it demonstrates
their ability to identify a significant and worthwhile problem, select a method or methods
of research, employ these methods properly and present the entire effort in writing that is
clear and cogent. After the paper has been submitted to the students’ committee an oral
defense of the proposal will be scheduled.
 To successfully complete the proposal for an applied study project students will submit
and orally defend a formal proposal paper of sufficient length and complexity that it
demonstrates their ability to identify a significant and worthwhile problem, use
appropriate theoretical and empirical study to develop a response to the problem and
assess the effectiveness of the response, and present the entire effort in writing that is
clear and cogent. After the paper has been submitted to the students committee the
student will schedule an oral defense of the proposal with the student’s committee.
The committee will make a determination about whether or not to approve the student for
candidacy based on their evaluation of the paper and the student’s performance at the oral
defense. The entire Dissertation/Applied Study Committee must be present during the proposal
defense and approve the proposal unanimously. The oral presentation will be open to other
14
interested faculty and students. Although the examination is usually an oral hearing, the
committee may require that a student respond in writing to questions and/or make revisions in
their proposals as a condition of approval. If the student is required to resubmit the proposal, the
committee will review the revised proposal and communicate the outcome to the student in
writing. The student must receive written approval of the proposal by the committee.
Candidacy
Candidacy is the final phase of the program. A student becomes a candidate for the Ed.D. degree
after completing the required coursework and passing the qualifying examination and
successfully developing and defending his/her proposal.. At this point, the student will be
allowed to pursue the dissertation or applied study work. During the candidacy phase of the
program the student must be registered for a minimum of three credit hours per semester until
successful completion of the dissertation/applied study.
To complete the candidacy phase and earn the EdD degree a written copy of the dissertation or
applied study project must be submitted to the student’s Dissertation/Applied Study Committee
for approval before the oral defense will be scheduled. The members of Dissertation/Applied
Study Committee are responsible for submitting their written evaluations to the committee chair
prior to the defense.
The final oral dissertation/Applied Study defense will be open to other faculty, students and the
interested public. The Dissertation/Applied Study Committee members must be present at the
oral defense. Consensus of the committee is required for approval of the dissertation/applied
study and recommendation that the Ed.D. degree be awarded. If the committee requires
substantive changes to the written project, the final vote of the committee will be postponed until
after the changes are completed.
Submission of the Written Dissertation/Project
The dissertation/applied study project must be submitted to the CEHHS Doctoral Program
Coordinator/s by a specified deadline in the semester in which the degree is conferred. The
dissertation/applied study project must conform to U of M – Dearborn approved
dissertation/applied study manuscript guidelines.

Academic Policies and Procedures
Credit Requirements
Criteria for Continuation in the Program
Students must maintain a cumulative GPA of a B (5.0 on a 9.0 point scale) or better in the
program to be in good academic standing. Students must also earn a C- or better in all required
courses. Students whose cumulative GPA falls below a B (5) in any one term will be placed on
academic probation and notified of this in writing. Students who do not make satisfactory
progress may be removed from the program.
Transfer Credit
Up to six credit hours from another (non UM) accredited university will be accepted as transfer
credits. Students may transfer up to 24 credit hours from the Ann Arbor and Flint campuses.
Courses must be at least at the 500 level and the student’s academic advisor must approve all
courses.
Courses may receive transfer credit if:
 Graduate credits were completed at another accredited institution within five years of
application to the Ed.D. program.
 Graduate credits were completed at another U-M School or College (including Flint and
Ann Arbor).
 The course was not counted toward the completion of another degree program.
If a doctoral student enters the proposed program having completed a basic introduction to
education research course as part of completing another degree, they may substitute another
course for EDK 500 with the written approval of their advisor. A request to alter other core
course requirements may be made by the student and their advisor but must be approved by the
Ed.D. Faculty Advisory Committee.
16
Re-Admission
If a student has not taken classes for two or more consecutive semesters, the student’s account
will be considered as inactive. A student must submit a Re-Admission Form to the College of
Education Health and Human Services Office of Student Success to be re-admitted into the
program.
Academic standing will remain the same from when the student was last actively taking courses.
(Ex: If a student were on Academic Probation, he/she would remain on so upon readmission.)
Re-Admission Forms can be downloaded at this link:
http://umdearborn.edu/cehhs/fileadmin/groups/10/soe_cms_files/current_students/student_servic
es/forms/Readmission_FORM_.pdf
Petitions
The petition process is a formal way of permitting a student to request an exception to regular
rules governing program completion. Examples of petitioned items would include taking a
course that is cross listed with a 400 level course, waiving a program requirement, late dropping
from a course, retroactively withdrawing from a semester, or taking a course off-campus.
Petitions may be submitted to the Ed.D. Faculty Advisory Committee through the Office of
Student Success. Students will be notified of the Committee’s response by mail.
Students will be limited to three petitions to take a course that is cross listed with a 400 level
course during the course of their program. All petitions will be reviewed to ensure that there is a
plan to ensure that there is sufficient differentiation between the undergraduate course
expectations and the doctoral student course expectations.
If a petition is denied, the student has the right to appeal to the Associate Dean in the College of
Education Health and Human Services. The appeal will be presented to the Executive
Committee for review and a decision.
