Assessments Of Dual Degree Programs At University Of Kentucky College Of Pharmacy, Adebayo Ogunniyi

MPA/MPP/MPFM Capstone Projects

Information about dual degree programs offered by colleges and schools of pharmacy is scarce. Factors that motivate a pharmacy student to pursue a dual degree have not been formally assessed.

Does obtaining a dual degree increase the likelihood of a “non-traditional” pharmacy jobs upon graduation?

There are three main parts of this capstone project. The first …

Western New England: From College To University, Rosemary K. O'Donoghue

WNE History

"In the fall of 2006 President Caprio asked me, “Can you undertake the enormous and important task of representing in words and in photos from our archives how Western New England College evolved into what it has become today?” Although I had been in the academic side of the institution for 25 years, I had not consciously reflected on specific changes in other areas.

Rewriting The Question, What Do You Want To Be When You Grow Up? Career Counseling With 21st Century Emerging Adults, Susan Rene Barclay

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Adults ask children constantly, "what do you want to be when you grow up?", leading children to focus on an uncertain future as an adult. From very early in life, children attempt to parlay their likes and desires into a career choice. However, as children grow into adolescence, they begin to realize vocation is not as easy as simply making a choice. The years spent in college are usually a more serious time for committing to plans regarding the future and are when many degree-seeking emerging adults face challenges in gaining a concrete sense of direction toward a future career. …
