内容説明

This book explores the nature of graduate education at two levels: it examines current national policies and the ways in which they are made; and it provides a series of six case studies of individual disciplinary areas, highlighting the similarities and differences between them. The topics explored in each case study include the changing purposes of graduate education; nature of recruitment; modes of instruction in research methods; the relationship between the nature of the discipline and the patterns of graduate education; choices of research topics and their implications; patterns of study; roles of supervisors; available support facilities; the overall graduate experience; problems of competition; expectations about standards and styles of thesis; monitoring of progress and final assessment; and subsequent career expectations and opportunities. A concluding chapter links the study of national policies and those of the six study areas.
