Welcome to AOS!

The Administrative and Organizational Studies (AOS) Division has as its primary goal the development and enhancement of leadership and technology in educational systems, organizations and institutions.

It is within the scope of this division to study emergent trends and educational innovations; to develop rational for supporting educational change; and to present viable programs of study for advanced students in education which will enable them to function skillfully as educational leaders in facilitating change, and in developing and conducting on-going programs. Two program areas, General Administration and Supervision, and Instructional Technology are under the guidance of the division.
