At Trident, the pursuit of excellence in online education is a constant goal—and TUI has once again delivered. Trident has been named to The Princeton Review’s Best Online Doctor of Education (Ed.D.) Programs for 2025, an honor that reflects the institution’s ongoing commitment to flexibility, affordability, and access to innovative technology in advanced degree programs.

This list highlights online Ed.D. programs that stand out for the qualities students seek when advancing their education—adaptability, cost-effectiveness, and access to innovative learning technology. Trident’s inclusion demonstrates its strength in meeting the evolving needs of working professionals across the education sector.


The Princeton Review, widely respected for its data-driven rankings and trusted guidance for students, bases its lists on comprehensive student feedback and institutional data. In the 2025 edition, over 168,000 college students at 390 colleges participated in surveys that informed the listings. 1
