Course Student Learning Outcomes/Standard

1. Identify key terms and current issues, concepts, positions, principles, and structures associated with leadership and governance in higher education.
2. Examine the major administrative units (and organizational structure) at higher education institutions and compare the opportunities and challenges within each unit.
3. Analyze the theoretical constructs that frame administrative work and leadership at institutions of higher education. Use these constructs in college administrative processes.
4. Articulate how governance is implemented at various institution types, including those that often escape notice by researchers and the media yet educate large proportions of historically marginalized students (e.g., Community and Technical Colleges, Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), Hispanic Serving Institutions (HSIs), Tribal Colleges and Universities (TCUs), Regional Comprehensive Public Universities (RCUs).
5. Assess the political and financial relationship between selected higher education institutions and their state/federal legislatures. Recognize the implications these relationships have on administrative functions and decision-making.
6. Develop individualized skills, knowledge, dispositions, and leadership styles that promote effective governance while working at higher education institutions.
