The master's degree program in college student affairs (CSA) prepares students for professional positions in student affairs at a variety of postsecondary institutions. Learning opportunities for students include combinations of classroom instruction, project-based learning, field experiences, internships, and individualized learning. The CSA executive management concentration (CSA-EMC) allows full-time, mid-level-to-senior student affairs professionals to complete the program as part-time students.
