The Business Education Program has merged with the Program in Higher Education. The synergy around the merger has resulted in exciting new options for students and faculty in both programs. The MA curriculum in Business Education remains a viable option for those interested in adult/academic/corporate education. Prospective students interested in a PhD are urged to visit the Higher Education links for more information about the PhD.
Business Education Master's students take a total of 36 credits; half of which are courses taken to prepare them specifically as business educators, and half in educational foundations taken in The Steinhardt School of Education and content courses usually taken at the Stern School of Business.
