Effective July 1, 2009, a
new department has been created
that integrates the business and
marketing education, human
resource development and adult
education, and comprehensive
WHRE programs from the
Department of
Work and Human Resource
Education (WHRE) into the
department formerly known as
Educational Policy and
Administration (EdPA). The
name of this new department is
Organizational Leadership,
Policy and Development (OLPD).
It will offer exciting
opportunities for collaboration

Adult Education Faculty Advisers
The adult education advisers represent an interdisciplinary
group of faculty who are all members of the Department of Work
and Human Resource Education.
Applicants for an M.Ed. degree will receive a letter
specifying their adviser. Applicants for an M.A. or a doctoral
degree will receive a letter after application materials have
been reviewed listing advisers who are willing to work with that
student. Students are encouraged to visit with suggested
advisers to select the faculty member with whom they wish to
work. Advisers may be changed by notifying the director of
graduate studies,
James M. Brown, of such a
decision.
