The Department of Educational Administration has been a part of the University of Nebraska-Lincoln since 1913. In those early years, we were the Department of School Administration. The focus was broadened in 1961 and we became the Department of Educational Administration. For many years, a main emphasis of the department was the preparation of administrators for public schools, mainly those of Nebraska. In the 1980's we began to expand our interests in post-secondary education. In the 1990's we added the specialization in Educational Leadership and Higher Education.
Our experienced administrators, curriculum specialists, and college administrators are dedicated to prepare you for the rewarding and fulfilling career in educational administration.

The Knowledge of Principals in Creating Collaborative Communities of Professional Learning.”
Building on the understanding that a culture of collaboration for teachers creates
better results for students, Dumas studied what principals know about creating such a culture. Dumas serves as Director of Curriculum, Instruction and Assessment at Hastings Public Schools in Nebraska.
