(HIED) Ed.S., Ed.D. (EDUC) Areas of Specialization: The Higher Education doctoral program prepares students for professional competence, leadership, and service in two areas: administration (including student personnel work) and college teaching. A third program option combining elements of both administration and college teaching also may be selected. Within these areas of specialization, practicing professionals as well as persons entering the higher education field, may pursue programs emphasizing community colleges, four-year colleges and universities, or state, regional, or national agencies. Prerequisites for Acceptance to the Program: In addition to meeting University requirements for admission to the Graduate School, all students seeking admission to the higher education program must complete program application procedures that include program application, three letters of reference, an autobiographical sketch, a sample of their writing ability, and for all educational specialist and doctoral applicants, a Miller Analogies or Graduate Record Examinations score and a personal interview with members of the higher education faculty. Requirements for the Master of Education Degree: (Minimum 33 hours.) The master’s degree program in higher education provides academic preparation for persons who plan to seek entry level positions at the director or assistant director level in both two-year and four-year institutions for which a master’s degree is appropriate preparation, including community colleges and technical colleges, liberal arts colleges, and four-year colleges and universities. Depending upon prior experience, graduates may expect to find employment in a wide variety of positions in residence life, financial aid, career planning and placement, student activities, student union management, alumni affairs, development, public information, continuing education, financial management, human resources, and institutional research, or as adviser to fraternities and sororities, or minority students. In combination with course work outside of Higher Education, students may prepare for positions in development and in other beginning level positions in post-secondary institutions and educational agencies. The 33 graduate-semester-hour program (or 27 hours and a thesis) includes a minimum of 21 graduate semester hours in higher education, a minimum of 6 semester hours of adviser-approved electives, and 3 semester hours in research or statistics, Additionally, students with no prior experience in post-secondary institutions will be expected to complete one or more internships. Requirements for the Educational Specialist Degree: Two options are available: one in college teaching and one in college administration. While both programs are designed primarily for persons currently employed in post-secondary education, they can, under certain circumstances, be used as pre-service preparation for persons presenting two years of relevant experience. Each option contains a minimum of 30 graduate semester hours including 15 semester hours in higher education, three semester hours in research or statistics, a written project, and a minimum of six graduate semester hours of approved electives from outside Higher Education (previous graduate work may be counted toward this requirement). Students enrolled in either specialization with no prior full-time experience directly in keeping with their goals will be required to complete one or more internships. A basic requirement for majors in college teaching is the completion of a minimum of 30 graduate semester hours of course work in one or more intended teaching field(s), including previous graduate work. Requirements for the Doctor of Education Degree: Three program concentrations are offered: college teaching, administration, and a specialization combining elements of both. Each student’s program of study includes 12 semester hours of higher education core courses, 9 semester hours of courses stipulated for an area of specialization, 6 semester hours of electives in higher education, 9 semester hours from outside higher education; and 9-12 semester hours in research methods and statistics. Programs for students in the administration specialization must contain nine graduate semester hours in courses outside higher education while those in the college teaching specialization must contain a minimum of 45 post-baccalaureate, graduate semester hours in a teaching field(s). Students without three years of relevant experience in their field(s) of intended endeavor will be required to complete one or more appropriate internships.
