The Higher Education Administration master's program at Duquesne University has
truly given me the cultural, professional, and innovative experience needed to do
the work of serving students.
The M.S. in Higher Education Administration program has provided me with a holistic
view of the different functional areas within higher education. I can't speak highly
enough of the flexibility and real-world applications this program provides.
Returning to graduate school as an adult learner was a big decision, but the
people at Duquesne University instilled in me a level of confidence that I haven't
found anywhere else...I want to give future students much of the same support that
I experienced.
