Human anatomy is a foundational course in graduate health professional programs. Given the increased enrollment in anatomy courses, along with the development of new technologies, institutions are increasingly compelled to provide alternative course formats, including online learning. Similarly, higher education is increasingly transitioning from…

Background/purpose: Internships are widely adopted as a mechanism to enhance graduate employability, yet their role in shaping student readiness, soft skill development, and digital literacy remains underexamined in Indonesia. Materials/methods: A mixed-methods approach was employed, combining a survey (n=100) of undergraduate students and…

This policy brief examines whether Maryland faces an enrollment cliff in higher education by analyzing high school graduation projections and historical college enrollment data.

Academic reading, a cornerstone of postgraduate education, often presents challenges, particularly for non-native English speakers. These include complex texts, extensive vocabulary, and integrating diverse sources. This study investigates the potential of ChatGPT as an academic reading tool for postgraduate students, emphasizing its usability,…

This study leverages the digital sticky note feature in Zoom's whiteboard to provide students with opportunities to gain a better understanding of supply chain management through engagement and hands-on experience in a synchronous online class. The activity was implemented within an online graduate course in Operations and Supply Chain Management…

In recent years, automated warehouses have become increasingly important to meet the rising demand of supply chain operations. Despite their growing relevance to industry, these systems remain largely underrepresented in academic settings, which contributes to a significant gap in student knowledge and preparedness. Traditional educational…

Rapidly evolving technological markets in the so-called knowledge economy have resulted in increased pressure on postgraduate (PG) engineering cohorts to produce research outputs that meet the disparate requirements of both Higher Education (HE) and the knowledge economy. The latter expects a product that is not always explicitly linked to the…

Intraprofessional education between occupational therapy (OT) and occupational therapy assistant (OTA) students can be a valuable component of the entry-level curriculum. Comparisons of OT vs. OTA students' perceptions are sparse, yet this information may yield important insights about intraprofessional learning needs. This mixed methods study…

This study introduces and validates the artificial intelligence anxiety scale (AIAS), a novel instrument designed to measure researchers' anxieties when employing artificial intelligence (AI) tools in academic writing. As AI technologies rapidly infiltrate scholarly work, however, the primary concern grows about their ethical implications, impact…

The role of educational fields in the intergenerational transmission of advantage is underexplored. This paper aims to fill this gap by examining the moderating role of fields of study on the first-job earnings of Italian higher education graduates, using stepwise linear regression techniques. Our findings confirm that the effect of social class…

Attention to the emotional aspects of international students' career development and transition experiences has been overshadowed by education as a pathway for improving future employment. This secondary analysis study aimed to understand the emotional experiences and reactions of international students as they transitioned from university to…

Grounding our work in shared commitments to community care, our collective of racially minoritized higher education scholars aims to resist the often overly competitive and isolating nature of research teams in graduate education. Our commitments to community care are also in opposition to a hyperfocus on productivity as a measure of success in…

The Master's degree is a necessary step for any library and information science professional who wants to advance in the field. This requires potential students to go through the graduate school application process, which often includes additional requirements set by the School of Information (or equivalent college). Application requirements offer…

Over the past 30 years, mixed methods research has become an increasingly popular tool in the social sciences. Mixed methods research can capture a diverse range of perspectives and levels of complexities not always possible with the use of a single methodological approach. It has been effectively implemented in a range of contexts to explore…

Graduate teaching assistants (GTAs) play a significant role in higher education and in the education of undergraduate students. Previous research suggests that undergraduate students perceive GTAs differently than faculty instructors, but little has been done to explore the nature of those perceptions. This exploratory study uses…
