As a university that values undergraduate education, faculty often collaborate closely with our undergraduate students, who also complete capstone projects of original research in their senior year. Our Graduate School awards a Master of Arts in Educational Leadership and Societal Change, and both the graduate faculty and graduate students are actively conducting research around the world.
