The end result is that the student's research experience is considerably enriched by having the faculty team supplemented by practitioners in the student's profession and field. Although the Greenleaf University doctoral program is very demanding, it is also extremely supportive. The learner will find the process from initiate to doctor to be challenging, exhilarating, and worth-while. Unlike other graduate programs the program is explicit, and the staff and faculty support the learner from beginning to completion. Lodging and meals will be charged in addition to the seminar fee.
Travel expenses are the responsibility of the learner.
During the residency, Greenleaf University sponsors a series of presentations and panel discussions to stimulate awareness of current issues in leadership, to promote scholarly discussion among learners and faculty, and to provide an opportunity for learners and faculty to socialize. The topics selected for the presentation focus on global and trans-cultural dimensions of the GU program within various professional fields. Faculty are present for mentoring learners. Residency also is an excellent opportunity for learners to progress on program modules. Appropriate training of these senior students will be provided prior to the residency.
