About the Program

Some experts call it asynchronous learning — you're part of the class discussion, but not sitting in the same classroom at the same time. Guided by a faculty of highly qualified and experienced educators, you will meet online and share the learning experience with your instructor and classmates. With small class sizes and program flexibility, there are ample opportunities to engage with your instructor personally and receive the individual attention that you deserve.

The School of Education and Allied Professions offers online courses in the following degree and licensure programs:

  • Master of Science in Educational Leadership
  • Master of Science in Educational Leadership with Catholic School Concentration
  • Principal Licensure post-master's courses
  • Teacher education certifications
At UD, few students opt to complete master's degrees entirely online, though that is possible in some programs. Many blend online and traditional courses throughout the program. For online coursework, no campus visits are required.

Tuition Reduction
We also understand the particular financial burden of graduate education on educators in Catholic schools. Teachers and administrators employed full-time by a Catholic school or diocese are eligible for 50 percent tuition reduction while they pursue the online master's degree in Educational Leadership.
