An Assessment of Research-Doctorate Programs in the United States: Biological Sciences.
Jones, Lyle V., Ed.; And Others – 1982
The quality of doctoral-level biochemistry (N=139), botany (N=83), cellular/molecular biology (N=89), microbiology (N=134), physiology (N=101), and zoology (N=70) programs at United States universities was assessed, using 16 measures. These measures focused on variables related to: (1) program size; (2) characteristics of graduates; (3)…
