Kent State has a similar program with 20 more credits, but it costs nearly half the amount Clarkson charges.

"Interprofessional" often means interdisciplinary health professions education. This could be more on-target than a generic education doctorate for a candidate in that world, while still having some advantage from broadness.

 

I feel like if you can't lead people of different but related disciplines, have you really learned leadership at all? I wonder if there are unique differences inherent in leading a group of related professionals versus leading a team where everyone has the same role.
