Current SOE Graduate Students - Did you know you already have a head start on an SOE Doctor of Education Degree?

Are you aware that as a current student at Seattle Pacific University, you can combine your School of Education Master's or Certification credits towards doctoral program requirements? Earning the Doctor of Education degree upon completion of a Masters or Certification program, rather than returning at a later date, reduces the number of required doctoral credits, thereby lowering the cost of tuition. Earning a doctoral degree now may open up valuable opportunities at a later time. SPU's Doctor of Education program is designed specifically for active professionals interested in leadership and teaching positions in a variety of settings, and can be tailored to meet varied professional needs and interests.
