Graduate-Level Courses on Two-Year Institutions. Directory.

Overview & Synopsis

Developed from an examination of the latest graduate bulletins of more than 250 American colleges and universities, this directory lists graduate-level courses dealing exclusively or restrictively with two-year educational institutions. Organized by state, the directory lists 200 courses offered at 116 colleges and universities that deal with aspects of two-year institutions. For each course, the following information is provided: the institution offering the course; the academic unit in which the course is listed; the address of the institution; the course number; the course title; the complete course description in the catalog; and a contact person at the institution for further information. Institutions included in this directory were identified from the following sources: Nelson's "The Study of Higher Education: A Profile of Graduate Doctoral Programs," and the Education Testing Service's "Directory of Graduate Programs, Volume D, Social Science and Education" (1987), identifying institutions offering specialization in two-year college education; a 1982 study by Lumsden et al.; and a 1984 study by Hollenback, Hollenback, and Lumsden, identifying institutions offering graduate-level coursework with a restricted focus on two-year colleges; and the Association for the Study of Higher Education Membership and Higher Education Program Faculty Directory.
