The Higher Education Program provides graduate students with the opportunity to earn a Master of Education (M.Ed.) degree 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 with breadth and depth 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 on the college level will be well served by the M.Ed. in Higher Education degree. Students can choose from two different 36 hour, non-thesis degree tracks: the Administration Track or the Instructional Track. The program is now available online.
