Higher Education Program

Higher Education programs prepare
individuals for leadership roles in
colleges, universities and other
agencies devoted to adult learning.

The program area of Higher Education consists of graduate programs in College Student Personnel and Higher Education administration. The primary mission of this area is to prepare people for leadership roles in colleges, universities, and other agencies devoted to adult learning. Adult learning occurs not only in traditional institutions of Higher Education, but also in business and industry, social and government agencies; the military and health care organizations.

These programs differentiate application and theoretical conceptualizations according to degree level. The masters programs focus on the development and application of skills, while the doctoral programs emphasize the study, development, and testing of theoretical concepts. Students progress through the degree levels from M.Ed. or Ph.D. while increasing integration among the components of the individual, organization, and society. The graduate programs are:

  • College Student Personnel (M.Ed.)
  • Higher Education (M.Ed.)
  • Higher Education (Ph.D.)
  • Comparison of Admission Requirements for Higher Education programs.
  • Comparison of Admission Requirements for Higher Educationprograms.
