Overview

Available in a full-time, two-year, or part-time, three-year format, the Higher Education Student Affairs program from Lewis and Clark College focuses on the ways that learning and development occur in and outside the classroom, in all dimensions of life on a college campus.

Specifically, our program is concerned with creating intentional, inclusive, democratic communities where diverse student voices are heard and all are empowered to succeed. Fostering understanding and respect for diversity, our graduates become outspoken advocates for the full and equal participation of all students in higher education.

Key Features

Graduates of the program will be prepared to serve as coordinators, assistant directors, and directors in a wide range of areas related to student affairs, including residence life, judicial affairs, multicultural student affairs, student activities, career services, financial aid, academic advising, disability services, Greek life, and many others.

In addition to being prepared for entry into mid-level professional positions in colleges and universities, graduates will be uniquely positioned to work in mission-driven units, programs, and institutions with a commitment to diversity, equity, and social justice.
