Aus dem Klappentext

Midlevel administrators constitute an integral and significant force within higher education; however, they are virtually ignored in the higher education literature. This volume of New Directions for Higher Education presents profiles and career paths of a variety of midlevel administrators serving in colleges and universities, providing much-needed information on an often-neglected workforce. Beginning with an overview about midlevel administrators as a group and reviews of the literature, the issue proceeds to profile eleven different midlevel administrators in great detail. . These administrators represent the areas of academic advising, international student affairs, institutional advancement, human resources, information technology, enrollment management, budget and planning, student life and development, business and finance and institutional research. The profiles describe each administrator's academic background, experience and training and previous positions, but also include descriptions of the primary functions of the unit, staffing, necessary education and skills, chances for mobility, major functional and professional challenges, roles of professional organizations, available professional literature and the needed research in the field. By uncovering practical insider information and examining the pathways that worked for these practitioners, this volume serves as an invaluable guide for those seeking information about career possibilities in midlevel administration.
