THE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATIONAL LEADERSHIP WELCOMES YOU TO OUR PAGE!
The Educational Leadership Department in Teachers College, Ball State University, is one of the most vibrant and well-known academic units at the university and in Indiana. Our online Master's in Educational Administration and Supervision programs is consistently nationally ranked by U.S. News and World Report. Ball State is a steady provider of school principals and school superintendents in Indiana. 
In 2018-2019 the Educational Leadership Department moved from a P-12 to a P-16 program with the addition of three full-time faculty with a focus on higher education and community college leadership. This move has created a new dynamic that has brought an expanded programmatic perspective to the preparation of educational leaders at Ball State. We are now home of the Master’s Program in Student Affairs Administration in Higher Education (SAAHE). Begun in 1965, SAAHE has graduated hundreds of outstanding higher education leaders across the nation and world. We are also home to the Ed.D. in Higher Education, a doctoral program which prepares students to lead within colleges and universities around the country and globe.
For this year's One Ball State Day, we are fundraising for three different funds: (1) the Department of Education Leadership's general fund; (2) the Social Justice Research in Higher Education Award; and (3) the SAAHE program fund.
Department of Education Leadership's General Fund
This general fund is drawn upon for a variety of purposes related to the ongoings of the Department. Most recently, we have used this fund to support applicants for faculty positions who were invited to campus for an interview.
Social Justice Research in Higher Education Award
Through the Social Justice in Higher Education Award, our goal is to sustainably provide two awards per year in the amount of $500 to students enrolled in the Ed.D. in Higher Education whose research forefronts social justice imperatives.
SAAHE Program Fund
The purpose of this fund is to provide for the advancement and support of our SAAHE program. Most recently, we have used this fund to purchase graduation stoles for all our students and provide refreshments for our End-of-the-Year Celebration.
