BOWLING GREEN, Ky. (June 30, 2017) — Western Kentucky University will offer its educational leadership doctoral program at Fort Knox with the first cohort of students scheduled to begin the Ed.D. program in January 2018.
According to Dr. Tony Norman, director of WKU’s Educational Leadership Doctoral Program, Fort Knox will offer the same rigorous, high-quality program available in Bowling Green since 2008 to military and civilian personnel assigned at Fort Knox and their families, retired service members, reservists, veterans and P-12 educators as well as other professionals.
