China is a major source country of students in the UK's taught Master's programs. The reliance on China as a major source country has caused some concerns over its sustainability. Will the Chinese students continue to come? To answer this question, a push-pull factor analysis is conducted on the perceptions of Chinese students who graduated from…

Purpose: The purpose of this article is to compare graduates' score rates in two multiple mini-interview (MMI) stations designed to assess graduates from several academic areas: confidant vs stress interview and synchronous vs asynchronous. This relates to three transversal competences (TCs) (learning to learn [LL], positive professional attitude…

In this article, authors examine literature on the enrollment, degree attainment, and experiences of Black women graduate students. Authors use socialization to examine the failures of academia to account for Black women's intersectional identities and identify ways administrators and faculty can further support these women's success.

This study examines the extent to which students obtain postsecondary credentials in the career technical education (CTE) fields of focus they choose in high school. Using school fixed effects models, we find that focusing on a particular CTE field in high school is associated with an increased probability of enrolling and obtaining a…

This research study sought to address was a determination of whether or not a sufficient level of competence-based information technology (IT) skill sets and fundamental technological literacy requirements are being taught in contemporary American graduate and doctoral-level human resource (HR) and human resource management (HRM) academic…

The future of the humanities has been the subject of debate in several countries where it is often stated that too many students are accepted into courses that offer relatively poor employment opportunities. In this article, we examine the development in mismatch among master's graduates in Norway for the period 1995-2015, to see whether this…

Counselor education pedagogy entails multiple unique instructional modalities, including supervision, group counseling, and skills instruction. Counseling programs often include courses such as practicum and internship, which embed experiential learning throughout the curriculum. However, little is known about the motivations and perceptions…

Responding to student demand for flexibility in the delivery of classes as well as the potential barriers and enabling factors supporting student success, universities have introduced distinctive educational models, including replacing the standard 12-week, sequential delivery of units of study with 4- or 8-week blocks of one or two units at a…

Chinese international graduate students (CIGs), growing up without siblings, under China's One-Child policy, are particularly impacted by peer dynamics. This study explored the influence of peer dynamics and family structure on the academic motivation of CIGs in the U.S., using Bandura's self-efficacy theory as a framework. A single-case study…

The purpose of this study is to measure the appropriateness of the existing admissions requirements as related to the likelihood of graduation. We employ a five-year sample of students admitted into the graduate program and selected a cutoff date to allow sufficient time for most of each cohort to complete their studies. Following the general…

This research study examines the establishment and evolution of the first enrollment management credential in the higher education field 25 years ago at the University of Miami. Interviews were conducted with the program's current program director and the two pioneering administrators who created the program. The study also employed an alumni…

This study expands the New Human Capital Theory by emphasising how the synergy of multiple skill combinations contributes to securing high-paying positions. Unlike traditional research that focuses on the wage premiums of single or paired skills, this study finds that a composite configuration of decision-making, innovation, research and…

The COVID-19 pandemic has led to a shift towards online and blended learning; however, most students and faculty members still report more challenges in online courses regarding social interaction and engagement. This paper aimed to design an interactive blended course following Merrills' first principles of instruction model to develop students'…

Physics education research to date has predominantly focused on the undergraduate level. This has left critical avenues of research in graduate education relatively understudied and has motivated much of my research. Numerous studies across the education research landscape have analyzed undergraduate admissions practices, but few have critically…

Health service psychology (HSP) students are at a high risk of burnout and physical and mental health problems (El-Ghoroury et al., 2011; Rummell, 2015). Research has begun to explore environmental factors within training programs that cause or prevent burnout (e.g., Kovach Clark et al., 2009; Swords & Ellis, 2017). Using the Job…
