Stony Brook offered me a golden opportunity to really launch my career. I thoroughly enjoyed all my classes and learned so much from the mentors I worked with along the way. Without the HEA program, I wouldn’t be as effective of an administrator as I am now.”

Every course is so well designed. The curriculum is solid and everything is really well laid out. I also appreciated the faculty — everyone was incredibly passionate about their work, and they were good practitioners in the field to be learning from. It was a great program to be part of!”

I was very glad to find an affordable option that allowed me to be asynchronous. Even though I wasn’t meeting people face-to-face, I was able to connect with them intellectually and share ideas, which was really empowering.”
