The Division of Higher Education is one of two graduate divisions in the School of Education. The division offers two programs at the Master’s level – Student Affairs and Higher Education. At the doctoral level, the division offers a Ph.D. program in Higher Education and an Ed.D. program in Community College Leadership. The Master’s level program with an emphasis in Student Affairs offers residential-based curriculum for those interested in campus leadership and practice around student development. The Master’s level program with an emphasis in Higher Education is a fully online program with two areas of emphasis: Community College Leadership and Higher Education Administration. Building from the rich Iowa State tradition of preparing leaders and scholars in the field, the division prepares individuals to engage with critical issues in postsecondary education through inquiry into student development, institutional policy, organizational leadership, and educational equity. Drawing upon a range of methods and theories, faculty produce research and scholarship that address the most pressing issues in the field. Further, faculty are committed to developing collaborative relationships with students for development of a scholar-practitioner perspective at the master’s level and an emerging-scholar emphasis at the doctoral level.
