Exploratory Demand Analysis for a Part-Time or Executive Master's Degree in Hospitality Management

Aim. The presented study aims to determine the key employment parameters that allow bachelor’s and master’s degree students to combine work with professional education in the optimal way and help people enrolled on further professional education to maintain a balance between work and family functions.Tasks. The authors analyze surveys of bachelor’s and master’s degree undergraduates and graduates of continuing professional education (CPE) programs of the Faculty of Economics of Lomonosov Moscow State University (MSU).Methods. This study uses general logical methods: dialectical, logical, comparative, and systems analysis; methods of sociological research, including public surveys.Results. The authors identify major employment characteristics that help working students maintain high academic performance and positively affect the work-family balance of older people receiving further professional education.Conclusions. Increased flexibility of the labor market in the form of more part-time job offers could make a significant contribution to maintaining and improving the quality of training of students who combine work and studies, which is especially relevant for bachelor’s degree students. Diversifying the available forms of employment can positively affect the decision to gain intitial professional experience while studying at the university. Due to the development of remote employment, the forms of occupation available to students need to be further studied in detail.

In 1899 a new Yale president (Arthur Hadley) makes Camp the effective “athletics director” at Yale, a paid part-time position. Camp is also named to the University Council, a new administrative organization generally comprising Yale professors; to give Camp appropriate academic credentials, Yale awards him an honorary master’s degree. Camp continues as an advisory football coach and in 1900 develops a set of tackle-back tandem plays (further developing plays first devised by Harry Williams), adding variation and deception to make the plays unusually effective; Camp reportedly develops American football’s first “mousetrap” play off this set of plays. Yale continues to have a dominant athletic record that sets them apart as an elite college athletic program and makes them a logical and famous setting for the adventures of Frank Merriwell.

Scientific Subject

A Master's degree in science is a postgraduate taught qualification offered by many universities, which allows you to specialize in a certain aspect of your Bachelor's degree course, or a related scientific subject. Usually the course consists of several taught modules and a research project. The organization of a Master's course is similar to that of a Bachelor's academic course, except that it generally lasts 1 year, depending on the course, institution, nature of the research project and whether it is being studied full or part-time.

The University

Two years ago, I graduated with my Master's degree from the University of Colorado at Denver and, as yet, have not decided whether to pursue my Ph.D. During these past two years, I have been teaching part time at Metropolitan State College in Denver, working on my resumé and doing a little archaeological field work. Just last year, I joined a network group consisting of some former friends and colleagues from graduate school, and a growing number of other graduate anthropologists. During my graduate work, I maintained my longstanding career in business. Since completion of that work, I have seen other graduates struggle with how to obtain rewarding positions in anthropological work. I went through a period of wondering just when I would be able to use my Master's degree professionally. Those questions and many doubts combined with my daily career in business have engendered a change in some of my attitudes about business and about "how to do anthropology." Based on my business experiences lately, I believe I have learned that corporate America needs to employ anthropologists!

Purpose The purpose of this study is to better understand the experiences faced by students during the application process for master's degree programs in speech-language pathology. Method Data were collected through administering an online survey to 365 volunteers who had applied to master's degree programs in speech-language pathology. Survey questions were designed to gain the student perspective of the application process through exploration of students' deciding factors for top choices of graduate programs, emotional involvement in the application process, biases/rumors heard, student challenges, advice to future applicants, and what students would change about the application process. Results Factors that influenced participants' reasoning for selecting their “top choice” programs were largely consistent with previous studies. Issues that shaped the student experience applying to graduate school for speech-language pathology included financial constraints, concern regarding the prominence of metrics such as Graduate Record Examinations scores in the admissions process, a perceived lack of guidance and advising from faculty, and confusion regarding variation among graduate program requirements. Conclusion Gaining insight into the student experience with the application process for graduate programs in speech-language pathology yields useful information from a perspective not frequently explored in prior literature. While the data presented in this study suggest the process is confusing and challenging to many applicants, the discussion highlights practical solutions and sheds light on key issues that should be considered carefully by individual graduate programs as well as the field as a whole.
