Survey on Ph.D. in Higher Education Policy Research

Dear Colleagues:

The University of Arkansas-Little Rock Higher Education graduate program is developing a Ph.D. in Higher Education Policy Research. 

This degree program would create a cadre of higher education policy researchers for Arkansas and other state and national organizations such as governing and coordinating boards, SHEEO offices, state and federal executive agencies and legislatures, national, specialized and regional accreditors, and foundations that focus on improving higher education outcomes.

We've developed a survey that will help us assess the need and the design characteristics that are important to prospective students. Please forward this invitation to complete the survey to any faculty, staff, or students you know who may be interested in this Ph.D. program. The survey contains only 20 items and will take about 5 minutes to complete. The address for the survey is: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.aspx?sm=E6ufF8txIZXiNHq7M5Y3vQ_3d_3d.

If appropriate, please feel free to complete the survey yourself. The deadline for survey completion is Wednesday, Nov 25th.

Thank you for your help with this, and best wishes for the fall semester.
