Doctorate of Education in Higher and Adult Education: Higher Education Concentration

The Doctorate in Higher Education concentration is designed for individuals seeking doctoral-level preparation primarily for mid- and senior-level administrative positions in higher education institutions, or higher education-related agencies, boards, and commissions.

This Adult and Higher Education program coursework develops a well-rounded approach to higher education—from teaching methods and curriculum design to administration and research within higher education. A dissertation component ties together theory and an applied understanding to equip Doctorate in Higher Education students to directly transfer their learning to a number of paths in higher education—from administration to student affairs to curriculum planning and more.

The HIAD faculty are offering the Ed.D. in Higher Education online. The proposed course schedule can be obtained by contacting the Doctor of Higher Education Program Faculty Members via email at hiad@memphis.edu.
