Overview & Synopsis

The seventh compilation of research studies in education, presented herewith, covers the school year, September 1, 1932, through August 31, 1933. Records for 8,229 masters' theses, 370 doctors' dissertations, and 462 faculty studies were received from 128 colleges and universities in response to a letter which was sent out on October 15, 1933.
