Abstract

As of July 1, 2007, the department of Education Policy and Leadership (EDPL) was reorganized into Education Leadership, Higher Education and International Education (EDHI) and Education Policy Studies (EDPS), as described below.

During the transition period, while some areas of the two new department sites are still under construction, the archived content of EDPL will remain posted at the EDPL web site location (www.education.umd.edu/EDPL). Once the tranisition is complete, all relevant information should be available at the two new sites:
