University Profile

Fielding Graduate University was incorporated on March 11, 1974 as The Fielding Institute in Santa Barbara, California. It is a non-profit, private, graduate university, governed by a Board of Trustees.

Fielding was founded to serve adult students who need a nontraditional approach to graduate-level education. Today, with an enrollment of approximately 1,000 students, Fielding Graduate University offers master’s, doctoral, and graduate certificate programs through its two schools of Leadership Studies and Psychology. Fielding’s distributed learning model emulates the Oxford independent student/tutorial approach in which students attend didactic classes online. Some programs offer in-person experiences in various locations in the U.S.. The programs that have an in-person component hold those sessions in contracted/rental spaces such as hotels and conference centers.

Fielding maintains an additional location in Washington D.C. that houses the Center for the Advancement of STEM Leadership which is funded through a  National Science Foundation  grant. There is no instruction, student services or recruiting from the D.C. location. Students do not typically visit either of the Fielding locations because all student services are online. 

The Fielding Graduate University Board of Trustees has approved each degree/credential program offered by the University.

Fielding Graduate University is a private institution approved to operate by the California Bureau for Private Postsecondary Education. Approval to operate means the institution is compliant with the minimum standards contained in the California Private Postsecondary Education Act of 2009 (as amended) and the California Code of Regulations. The California Bureau for Private Postsecondary Education (BPPE) can be contacted at 2535 Capitol Oaks Drive, Suite 400 Sacramento CA 95833, or P.O. Box 980818, West Sacramento, CA 95798-0818,  www.bppe.ca.gov , 1.916.574.8200, and toll-free phone: 1.888.370.7589 or by fax 916.263.1897.

Fielding Graduate University is the realization of the combined vision of several founders and early faculty members: Frederic Hudson, Hallock Hoffman, Renata Tesch, Marie Fielder, and Malcolm Knowles-distinguished leaders and thinkers in higher education. The founders envisioned a nationally recognized graduate school that would serve mid-career professionals desirous of an advanced degree, but whose educational and professional goals could not be met by traditional institutions of higher education. Their success was predicated on two basic, but rather advanced, notions.

First, the founders speculated that students seeking advanced degrees at Fielding would often be mid-career adults who wanted to enhance their already well-established academic and professional skills. They envisioned these students would be committed to career development and advancement, and, by the nature of their quest for doctoral education at midlife, interested in being part of a lifelong learning community dedicated to social change. Second, the founders recognized that this atypical student body would bring experiences to graduate study that were significantly different from those of young adults. Traditional methods of education were thought to be inappropriate for such learners. To accommodate and advance the learning needs of this audience, Fielding developed a rigorous, supportive learning model that continues to this day as flexible, learner-centered, self-directed, globally-oriented, and competence-based. How we implement those principles has evolved over the years, and varies among programs, but we remain committed to them. Fielding’s faculty is comprised of scholars and practitioners in the social science disciplines who are passionately dedicated to the success of their students.

Educating leaders, scholars, and practitioners for a more just and sustainable world.

We provide exemplary interdisciplinary programs for a community of scholar-practitioners within a distributed learning model grounded in student-driven inquiry and leading to enhanced knowledge.

Transformational Learning: We inspire a re-examination of one’s world view and underlying assumptions to enable a deeper understanding of self and society.

Learning Model

The Fielding learning model differentiates us from most other universities, enabling us to provide for a diverse student body in specialized fields within the social sciences. Our doctoral programs enroll over 80% of our students. These programs support students through:

• face-to-face regional, research, and national sessions
• independent study
• online seminars, and
• virtual meetings between student peers, faculty, and alumni.

The book “A Passion for Adult Learning: How the Fielding model is transforming doctoral education,” highlights five progressive principles:

• Learner-centered, competency-based education
• Mentors, not teachers
• A program for mid-life adults
• Low-residency graduate education
• Multi-disciplinary learning

Program Review

At least every five to seven years, each academic degree program of Fielding will engage in a formal program review. The Provost’s Office is responsible for maintaining the schedule for such reviews. When possible, program reviews will be synchronized with specialized accreditation reviews. At the Provost’s discretion, a specialized accreditation review may be substituted for the internal process.

In keeping with the recommendations of the Council of Graduate Schools and the standards of the Western Association of Schools & Colleges, program reviews at Fielding will include:

• A self-study in which the program analyzes its curriculum, modes of delivery, faculty resources, student retention and time to completion, and learning outcomes, and where it reviews assessment studies conducted since the last review.
• Feedback from both internal stakeholders and external reviewers evaluating these outcomes and their assessment and providing suggestions for improvement.
• Plans for connecting the program review outcomes to planning and budgeting processes and actions.

It is expected that each program will negotiate the specific focus(i) of a particular program review with the Provost before beginning the formal process.
