The University of Florida is actively recruiting applicants for its Master’s Program in Student Personnel in Higher Education (SPHE), an on-campus M.Ed. program designed for students pursuing careers in student affairs and higher education. The program blends educational theory, current trends, and practical experience to prepare scholar-practitioners who can design and support the development of college students. Students apply academic coursework in practitioner-based settings while building professional connections across the Gator Nation. The degree comprises 33 credit hours of core classes and 3 credit hours of supervised practicum and internship experiences, totaling 36 credit hours. Students begin in the fall semester as part of a cohort that provides peer support and community. Graduate assistantships may be available to on-campus students through an interview and selection process. These assistantships can include a tuition waiver, stipend, and healthcare; the post does not provide specific award amounts or guarantee funding. Interested applicants should review the program information and contact Clinical Assistant Professor and Program Coordinator Mary Kay Carodine to learn more about admission and assistantship opportunities.
