Rossier 

The mission of the USC Rossier School of Education is to improve learning in urban education locally, nationally and globally. Rossier leads the field in innovative, collaborative solutions to improve education outcomes. Our work is field-based, in the classroom, and online, and reflects a diversity of perspectives and experiences. We pride ourselves on innovation in all our programs, preparing teachers, administrators, and educational leaders who are change agents. We support the most forward-thinking scholars and researchers, whose work is having direct impact on student success in K-12 schools and higher education. We are leaders in using cutting-edge technology to scale up our quality programs for maximum impact.

 

PASA

The PASA program prepares graduates to assume a variety of professional roles in higher education administration and student affairs, from academic advising to residential life, admissions to athletic programs. Graduates of the program are represented across the full higher education spectrum, including two- and four-year institutions, public research universities, private liberal arts colleges, graduate/professional schools, and for-profit institutions. Through the combination of coursework, supervised fieldwork, and the culminating experiences afforded by either the Master’s Seminar or Thesis option, PASA students acquire the knowledge, skills, and perspectives essential for success in the range of higher education settings they enter.

 

UCSB

The University of California, Santa Barbara is a leading research institution that also provides a comprehensive liberal arts learning experience. Because teaching and research go hand in hand at UC Santa Barbara, our students are full participants in an educational journey of discovery that stimulates independent thought, critical reasoning, and creativity. Our academic community of faculty, students and staff is characterized by a culture of interdisciplinary collaboration that is responsive to the needs of our multicultural and global society. All of this takes place within a living and learning environment like no other, as we draw inspiration from the beauty and resources of UC Santa Barbara's extraordinary location at the edge of the Pacific Ocean.
