MS.Ed. in Higher Education

The master degree in Higher Education is a prerequisite to nearly all entry-level professional positions at colleges and universities. It is an essential requirement for those seeking to advance to leadership positions or seeking greater responsibility in institutions of higher education, educational associations, or in human resource areas in the public or private sector. By providing courses that are both relevant and current, taught by full-time faculty and full-time practitioners, the curriculum is optimally balanced, appropriately blending the practical and theoretical aspects of this body of knowledge. The Master of Science in Higher Education degree, offered by the higher education program in the Department of Educational Foundations and Leadership of the Darden College of Education, provides preparation for professional positions in postsecondary institutions, student affairs administration, and international higher education leadership.
