Our doctoral program prepares you for careers in teaching, administration, extension service, and training.

With this degree, you can assume leadership roles, manage programs, and teach in a variety of settings.
Ph.D. programs are not part of the Auburn University approved Educator Preparation Programs. The state of Alabama does not have certification/license at this level and therefore this degree is not eligible for reciprocity in other states.
