The Higher Education Administration and Policy Program is part of the Master of Science in Education (MSEd) curriculum within Northwestern University's School of Education and Social Policy (SESP).


Northwestern University’s
School of Education and Social Policy consistently ranks among the top 12 graduate schools of education nationwide, according to
U.S. News & World Report.

The goal of the program is to prepare skilled and reflective leaders to function effectively in administrative positions at colleges and universities as well as government agencies and private, nonprofit organizations concerned with higher education.

Five aspects of the program contribute toward its distinctiveness.
  1. Students, with diverse backgrounds and interests, learn from each other and broaden everyone's knowledge base.
  2. Faculty enrich classrooms with the real world experience of their professional practice.
  3. The master’s project is a fitting capstone to a challenging curriculum.
  4. Internships enhance student learning and facilitate career development.
  5. Alumni enjoy successful careers in a wide range of institutions and practice areas.
