Building from the rich Iowa State tradition of preparing leaders and scholars in the field, the division prepares individuals to engage with critical issues in postsecondary education through inquiry into student development, institutional policy, organizational leadership, and educational equity. Drawing upon a range of methods and theories, faculty produce research and scholarship that address the most pressing issues in the field. Further, faculty are committed to developing collaborative relationships with students for development of a scholar-practitioner perspective at the master’s level and an emerging-scholar emphasis at the doctoral level.
