Program Overview
The EdD in International and Multicultural Education is rooted in racial and educational justice, abolitionist frameworks and human rights education:
The program is grounded in five main conceptual areas:
- critical social theory and schooling
- intersectionality of race, class, nation, language, gender and sexuality in education
- human rights and social movements
- international and comparative education
- alternative research paradigms
Program Delivery
The program follows a schedule of alternate weekend classes that convene nine times a semester (Friday evenings and all day Saturdays).
Our Curriculum
