The joint M.Ed. in Educational Leadership  with an emphasis on Higher Education Administration with the M.P.P. is a combined educational leadership and public policy program that allows students to obtain both an M.Ed. and an M.P.P. degree in three years, instead of the four years that would be required if each were pursued separately. 

Candidates interested in this joint degree program must apply to and gain acceptance by both the Graduate School of Education and the Public Policy Program in Graduate Arts & Sciences.
