The
Center on Educational Governance (CEG) focuses
on the linkages between policy, educational
governance, and the improvement of urban
schools and systems. Center researchers use
an interdisciplinary approach to study current
policy solutions to the educational issues
posed by diverse urban communities - locally,
nationally and globally. The main activities
of the center are: (1) engaging in rigorous
quantitative and qualitative research studies
of policy problems; (2) building a knowledge
base to provide researchers, educators, parents
and policy makers with new tools and strategies
for improvement; and, (3) working in partnership
with educators and policy makers to use research
to improve policy and practice. Current projects
include U.S. and multi-national studies of
school networks and strategic alliances,
charter schools, leadership, data-driven
decision making, and educational reform.
The Center on Educational Governance
is an interdisciplinary research center that
unites faculty from across USC, including the Rossier
School of Education, the Marshall
School of Business, and the School
of Policy, Planning, and Development. The
Center is under the direction of Priscilla
Wohlstetter. For additional information
