Portfolio Introduction

Personal Introduction

        My name is Ndalahwa Masanja . Currently, I am pursuing a PhD in Higher Education Administration.

      I like traveling and meeting different people. I like to mingle with different cultures and learn from them. Whenever I have opportunity, I try to visit new places and interact with people from diverse cultural backgrounds. I really believe we can learn a lot from others and lasting education comes from an exposure to various environments. Additionally, I like to read inspirational books and watch educative TV programs.

        My goal is to work in higher education. I like to work in higher learning institutions and thus improve the quality of education. This is the basic reason for joining the higher education program at Andrews University.

      I read and write a lot due to the nature of this academic program. At present, I am writing a doctoral dissertation entitled "An examination of the relationship between financial incentives and perception of student choice at private Michigan universities". The purpose of this study is to investigate the role that financial incentives play in students’ selection process for their choice of an undergraduate degree granting higher education institution. In addition, there are a lot of new publications which have been written in higher education which I’m interested to know. 

I welcome you to look at my professional portfolio
