Hands-on Learning
Professional Experiences
Students complete six credit hours of HESA 554: Practicum and Professional Development. Full-time students fulfill field hours in the summer semester of their first year in the graduate program. During the last semester of the program, students will take a professional development capstone (3 credit hours). Only full-time students are required to complete the practicum field hour requirement. Part-time students with professional experience can substitute practicum coursework for elective coursework.
Graduate Assistantships
Students can apply for assistantships through the graduate school. Most assistantships provide a stipend and tuition waivers to subsidize the cost of higher education.
Additional assistantship information can be found on the graduate school website. Assistantships specific to student affairs are also available.
