性奴调教

性奴调教's Doctor of Philosophy in Higher Education Administration emphasizes the interplay of theory and practice in higher education.

Curriculum Overview

Through coursework and intensive study, 性奴调教's 46-credit hour Ph.D. in higher education administration program prepares future leaders, administrators and teachers for the college and university sectors. Courses focus on analyzing issues related to college students and higher education administration, application of discipline-based literature to higher education practice, application of best practice and research competency. Courses are grounded in a social justice and inclusion framework.听

Social Justice Framework

Our programs are grounded in our social justice framework. Social justice has been a 鈥渟ignificant lens鈥� for Jesuits since 1965 and is also vital for higher education and student affairs professionals, educators and community stakeholders. While the definitions of social justice are numerous, David Hollenbach, S.J., wrote that 鈥渟ocial justice concerns institutionalized patterns of mutual action and interdependence that are necessary to bring about the realization of distributive justice.鈥澨�

In an education setting, distributive justice is the claim that everyone should have access to the public good of education. Toward that end, we strive to find ways to address experiences of systemic injustice, displacing oppressive structures with those that provide for all.

As educators, we understand our particular obligation is to prepare leaders for higher education who will dismantle systems of oppression and help shape colleges and universities that create vital educational spaces for all, with an intentional focus on those who have been targets of bias and injustice. With these goals in mind, our program is informed by the Jesuit, Catholic perspective on social justice and is guided by the Universal Apostolic Preferences adopted by the Society of Jesus in 2019 for the decade ahead.

The Jesuits encourage specific approaches to bring about reconciliation and justice. Our program鈥檚 framework is specifically guided by two approaches: 鈥淲alking with the Excluded鈥� and 鈥淛ourneying with Youth鈥� (The Society of Jesus, 2019).

The approach 鈥淲alking with the Excluded鈥� guides our program鈥檚 framework. Our students are personally and professionally challenged to address both higher education and society鈥檚 systemic inequities through an understanding of reconciliation and justice.

The approach 鈥淛ourneying with Youth鈥� encourages the Jesuit community, including our work in the University and the School of Education, to be open to formation by those who are new to our community or those who are younger, including students, faculty and staff.听

As scholars and educators, we aim to co-create a learning environment where students are holistically prepared to:

1. Identify and analyze processes that dehumanize any persons and assist all in collectively and proactively dismantling oppression.
2. Reflect on the socialization that shapes each student and faculty member.
3. Give voice to particular groups鈥� experiences.
4. Contextualize the history and context that each person brings to our work by incorporating sociopolitical perspectives into dialogue.
5. Reflect upon and ask critical questions regarding the systems, structures and impact of higher education.
