Eight Christian universities and graduate schools have partnered together to offer an online PhD in leadership studies. This new Center for Global Studies, under the sponsorship of Johnson University (Knoxville, TN), will prepare students around the world for academic or ministry leadership.

The program “is an online, research-based, interdisciplinary degree that seeks to facilitate the leadership abilities and roles of Christian men and women working in inter-cultural, cross-cultural, and/or international contexts,” the center writes. The degree includes classes in ethics and research and requires focused electives in educational leadership, organizational leadership, or theology of leadership. The proposal and dissertation process follow three years of full-time online coursework.

Participating schools include Johnson University, TCM International Institute, Hope International University, Cincinnati Christian University, Emmanuel Christian Seminary, Lincoln Christian University, Milligan College, and Kentucky Christian University.
