Join that with our core study that includes topics on law, administration, finance, history, & organization and administration, and that is a #doctorate that has attracted early career professionals to faculty in other fields interested in better understanding administrations.

Comments about those certain Drs aside, our program is #online & offered in a synchronous manner - allowing #onlinelearning for professionals who want to expand their access to knowledge of #HigherEd. With students from around the country, we are part of a public, R1 institution.

Being an R1 is great, but we also maintain an environment responsive to students' interests, such as offering electives based on student requests this summer like: Online Teaching in Higher Education, Academic Advising, Minority Serving Institutions, Colleges & Activism, etc.
