Kansas
State University offers both a Graduate
Certificate in Academic Advising in Higher Education
and a Master of Science
in Academic Advising Degree
in partnership with NACADA. Both
academic advising graduate programs provide an opportunity
for faculty, full-time academic advisors, and administrators
to gain an understanding of myriad issues and skills needed
to deliver effective academic advising at the post-secondary
level of education.
These
programs are designed for:
- advisors and administrators who
desire more formal education related to academic advising
- faculty seeking advising knowledge
beyond their discipline
- graduate students anticipating
academic advising roles in higher education.
- persons interested
in working directly with student athletes
The
Certificate program
involves 15 semester credit hours of coursework.
The Masters degree
offers additional coursework with two options: (1) "Advising
Administration" and (2) "Intercollegiate
Athletics and the College Student." All coursework
is offered at a distance via the Internet. Classes are
delivered within a semester time frame and are somewhat flexible
in schedule. Students work
independently, yet share comments and questions via electronic
communications.
