Master of Education in Higher Education
The Higher Education Program provides graduate students with the opportunity to earn a Master of Education degree (MED) in Higher Education. Studies in Higher Education provide individuals who are interested in a variety of areas in higher education with the opportunity to explore the various facets of post-secondary institutions. This exploration is conducted from a uniquely Christian perspective.
Individuals who are interested in higher education administration, student personnel work, university development/advancement, or teaching at the college level will be well served by the MED in Higher Education. Students can choose from two different 36-hour, non-thesis degree tracks: The Administrative Track, or the Instructional Track. The program is available online.
