Harrisburg Office: Hours: Monday – Friday 08:00 AM – 4:00 PM Phone: 717-720-4064 The Ph.D. Program in Administration and Leadership Studies (ALS) began in 1998. Taught by an interdisciplinary faculty, the program is housed in the Department of Sociology and offered in collaboration with the Departments of Political Science and Economics. With a focus on leadership in nonprofit and public sectors, the ALS Program is designed to educate administrators who work in a wide variety of settings including health and human services, and higher education. The cohort-based program admits between 15 and 20 students at a time, who generally take two classes per semester (although full time study is an option) throughout the year, including the summer. Classes are designed to accommodate the schedules of working professionals, being offered in the evening and/or weekends. Each year a cohort of students is admitted at one of the two program sites – on even years at the main campus in Indiana, PA (about 60 miles east of Pittsburgh) – and on the alternate years, the off-site program in the state capitol, Harrisburg, PA.
