This book was released on 2022-08-26 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

The study also presents the results of an open ended question about which grad schools of communications of journalism that students are thinking of applying to. The study is based on data from 1,259 full time college students enrolled full time at 4-year colleges and universities in the USA.Just a few of the report's many findings are that: About 41.5% of students currently studying journalism, media or communications thought it likely or highly likely that they would apply to graduate school in this area.Apart from students already studying media, journalism or communications, interest in the subject is broadly shared by students from many disciplines, opening up the possibility of joint majors, or roles to play in other majors for communications and media departments. 26% of current business students felt the need for skills that they associate with journalism, media and communications courses.Data is broken out by more than 20 institutional and personal variables including but not limited to: income of family of origin, race/ethnicity, religion, gender, regional origins, current employment status, sexual orientation, major field of study, age, year of school standing, type of college, size of college, tuition level of college, and many other variables.

Book Survey of American College Students 2022  Graduate School Plans

Download or read book Survey of American College Students 2022 Graduate School Plans written by Primary Research Group Inc. and published by . This book was released on 2022-08-04 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study gives highly specific data on the graduate school plans of American college students with unique and targeted demographic data sets for plans to go to law school, medical/dental/veterinary school, MBA programs, international affairs/public affairs masters degree programs, PHD programs in the humanities, PHD programs in the hard sciences, masters programs in nursing/occupational and physical therapy and much more. The report helps its end users to answer questions such as: how does demand for MBA programs differ from that of law school? What are the demographics of interest in medical school vs. nursing or occupational therapy programs? How much demographic overlap is there? Beyond students obviously interested in graduate school in a given area, who are those students with more than a passing interest but who have not quite made up their minds? What is the demographic profile of these students? The report will help graduate schools, academic advisors, enrollment and retention executives and others to help pinpoint demand for particular programs, specifying not only those who plan to apply but the level of interest of everyone else. By so many targeted variables the study enables its readers to measure interest in specific academic programs from specific segments of the current US college population, with variables such as age, academic major, gender, sexual orientation, grades, SAT/ACT scores, regional origins, religion, level of student debt, income level of family of origin, population concentration of region of origin and many other personal variables. The study also breaks out data by key institutional variables so readers can estimate program and subject demand by type of college, size of college, public/private status and even tuition level. Data in the 197- page report is based on a representative sample of 1,765 full time US college students drawn from a representative sub sample of more than 90 colleges and universities.

Book Recasting History  Are Race  Class  and Gender Dominating American History

Download or read book Recasting History Are Race Class and Gender Dominating American History written by Richard W. Fonte and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1971, the state of Texas enacted a legislative requirement that students at public institutions complete two courses in American history. With that mandate in mind, the Texas Association of Scholars and the National Association of Scholars' Center for the Study of the Curriculum proposed to determine how students today meet the requirement, and what history departments offer as a means of doing so. What courses can students take, and what vision of U.S. history do those courses present? This study is the result of the authors' investigation. Their report focuses on the University of Texas at Austin (UT) and Texas A&M University at College Station (A&M), flagship institutions serving large undergraduate populations. For this study they examined all 85 sections of lower-division American history courses at A&M and UT in the Fall 2010 semester that satisfied the U.S. history requirement. They looked at the assigned readings for each course and the research interests of the forty-six faculty members who taught them. They also compared faculty members' research interests with the readings they chose to assign. They found that all too often the course readings gave strong emphasis to race, class, or gender (RCG) social history, an emphasis so strong that it diminished the attention given to other subjects in American history (such as military, diplomatic, religious, intellectual history). The result is that these institutions frequently offered students a less-than-comprehensive picture of U.S. history. They found, however, that the situation was far more problematic at the University of Texas than at Texas A&M University. If colleges and universities are to provide students with full and sound knowledge of American history, some things need to change. Teachers of American history should take race, class, and gender into account and should help students understand those aspects of history, but those perspectives should not take precedence over all others. The authors offer the following recommendations: (1) Review the curriculum; (2) If necessary, convene an external review; (3) Hire faculty members with a broader range of research interests; (4) Keep broad courses broad; (5) Identify essential reading; (6) Design better courses; (7) Diversify graduate programs; (8) Evaluate conformity with laws; (9) Publish better books; and (10) Depoliticize history. Appended are: (1) Tables; (2) Texas State History Requirement; and (3) Broad Characteristics of Eleven Discipline Categories. (Contains 17 tables, 32 figures and 54 footnotes.).

Book The Education of Historians for Twenty first Century

Download or read book The Education of Historians for Twenty first Century written by Thomas Bender and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2010-10-01 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An examination and analysis of history education in American colleges and universities In 1958, the American Historical Association began a study to determine the status and condition of history education in U.S. colleges and universities. Published in 1962 and addressing such issues as the supply and demand for teachers, student recruitment, and training for advanced degrees, that report set a lasting benchmark against which to judge the study of history thereafter. Now, more than forty years later, the AHA has commissioned a new report. The Education of Historians for the Twenty-first Century documents this important new study's remarkable conclusions. Both the American academy and the study of history have been dramatically transformed since the original study, but doctoral programs in history have barely changed. This report from the AHA explains why and offers concrete, practical recommendations for improving the state of graduate education. The Education of Historians for the Twenty-first Century stands as the first investigation of graduate training for historians in more than four decades and the best available study of doctoral education in any major academic discipline. Prepared for the AHA by the Committee on Graduate Education, the report represents the combined efforts of a cross-section of the entire historical profession. It draws upon a detailed review of the existing studies and data on graduate education and builds upon this foundation with an exhaustive survey of history doctoral programs. This included actual visits to history departments across the country and consultations with scores of individual historians, graduate students, deans, academic and non-academic employers of historians, as well as other stakeholders in graduate education. As the ethnic and gender composition of both graduate students and faculty has changed, methodologies have been refined and the domains of historical inquiry expanded. By addressing these revolutionary intellectual and demographic changes in the historical profession, The Education of Historians for the Twenty-first Century breaks important new ground. Combining a detailed historical snapshot of the profession with a rigorous analysis of these intellectual changes, this volume is ideally positioned as the definitive guide to strategic planning for history departments. It includes practical recommendations for handling institutional challenges as well as advice for everyone involved in the advanced training of historians, from department chairs to their students, and from university administrators to the AHA itself. Although focused on history, there are lessons here for any department. The Education of Historians for the Twenty-first Century is a model for in-depth analysis of doctoral education, with recommendations and analyses that have implications for the entire academy. This volume is required reading for historians, graduate students, university administrators, or anyone interested in the future of higher education.
