Academic Programs - Doctoral Program in Educational Theory and Practice (ETAP)
Faculty and graduate students in the Educational Theory and Practice (ETAP) Ph.D. program study and conduct research on philosophical, political, and social ideas, issues, and concerns as they are enacted in schooling, cultures, and pedagogies. The program is structured around a shared core and five emphasis areas: early childhood education, elementary education, middle grades education, social studies education, and teacher education. A central feature of the program is the integration of theory and practice.
