The following apprenticeships are available for 2024-2025: | Alumni Voices: My favorite part of the MHE program is the small cohort structure that promotes deeper class discussions, camaraderie, and mentorship. I had ample opportunities to expand my professional network through supervisors, faculty, staff, mentors, and fellow classmates and colleagues! I would recommend Elon’s MHE program to anyone who is looking to deepen their knowledge and understanding of Higher Education. - Joe Strid Coordinator for First Year Initiatives SUNY Oneonta The faculty and staff really care about you as a young professional and an incoming higher education practitioner. I felt valued and treated as a colleague, not only a student. - Taylor Swan Academic Advisor Virginia Tech The MHE’s focus on theory to practice helped prepare me for a career in higher education. Not only was I able to gain a strong foundational knowledge of the field, but I also had a chance to apply my coursework through my apprenticeship and internship experiences. My apprenticeship supervisor was also intentional about asking me what I was learning in class and how it may apply to my work. This combination of relevant experiences and knowledge has helped me post-graduation as I am able to draw on the skills and material learned in the MHE in my current position. - Torii Masinsin Associate Director of Admissions, Campus Visit Elon University Upcoming Events: Master of Arts in Higher Education |
