The MSEd in Higher Education Administration program prepares professionals for administrative leadership and supervisory positions in the administration of colleges and universities. The flexible curriculum emphasizes higher education management, personnel management, and information systems.

The 30-33 credit program, generally pursued on a part-time basis, was designed with the working professional in mind; all classes are offered in the evening. Part-time students generally take two and a half years to complete the program. Full-time students can finish the program in an average of a year and a half.

The majority of students in the program already hold positions in higher education and wish to increase their knowledge base and advance their careers, although some students enroll immediately upon completing their undergraduate degree. Many students enroll seeking a career change from such diverse fields as real estate, banking and teaching.

A very active Office of Career Services & Alumni Affairs assists students in finding internships (when required), offers workshops, job fairs and social events to increase student’s awareness of option and assist with networking.
