Description:

The Master of Leadership and Community Engagement (MLCE) is a professional master’s degree offered by the Graduate Program in Education that prepares graduates to advance in leadership roles in public sector organizations and communities with a focus on community engagement and innovation. The program is designed for candidates who are working in a wide range of contexts, including educational settings, community organizations, and other public sector areas, such as health care, child and youth services, libraries, arts and culture institutions, and recreational programs. The MLCE is offered as a five-term, part-time degree through blended and online courses and community placements, and is distinct from our Master of Education (MEd) degree in both format and content. The MLCE is designed for public sector professionals who are interested in developing their professional skills and knowledge to leverage community-based research and practice for social change. There is a focus on professional research.
