Students

We receive applications from across the world, guaranteeing that our student body represents a broad spectrum of ethnicities and cultures. Because of this, one of the main values of the Ph.D. Program in Urban Education is met—diversity. We want to reach out to those from various cultures so that they can make a difference within their own communities.
