The Higher Education Administration (HIED) program prepares students for careers as highly effective higher education administrators and staff professionals.
The coursework prepares students for the varied challenges facing two-year, four-year, and graduate institutions today and in the future. We offer a Master's of Education (M.Ed.) in Higher Education Administration and Student Affairs, a Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) in Higher Education Administration*, and an Educational Specialist (Ed.S.) in Higher Education Administration.
The HIED program includes over 100 students working toward a master's or doctoral degree, six program faculty, and over 700 alumni.
*Applications to the Higher Education Administration Ph.D. program are not being accepted at this time.
Justin Jeffery, Ph.D., has been selected as the 2026-2027 recipient of the Higher Education Administration and Student Affairs Alumni Award.
