Listening to Their Voices: Insights into EDD Alumna Perspectives of Their Doctoral Program and Dissertation Supports

Abstract

Researchers who teach in two school private universities in Florida explored student perceptions of program and university supports for doctoral candidates for the Ed.D programs or both universities. Through survey responses, the researchers learned that students perceived their success through two sets of factors—those provided by the program or university and those that were more personal such as time management and communication.
