A Study of Graduates of Off-Campus Graduate Programs of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign: Change and Related Learning

Abstract

dc:description

To meet the needs of working professionals, off-campus graduate programming offered by universities and colleges has increased during the 1980's. Few studies, however, have focused on changes experienced by the graduates of such programs. The purpose of this study was to understand the relationship between change in perceived professional performance, job satisfaction, and life satisfaction, and other related variables as experienced by the 1982-1986 graduates of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign who took all or part of their coursework off-campus. These graduates primarily majored in education and social work with some in engineering and food science.
