Consequences of Political and Educational Measures on Teaching First Year University Science.
Dohn, Helge
Higher Education, v30 n4 p435-41 Dec 1995
A study analyzed reasons why an introductory chemistry course serves as a gatekeeper that governs enrollment at Denmark's Royal Veterinary and Agricultural University. It concluded that admission procedures and criteria, the market economy model for higher education, and curriculum structure emphasizing pure science as foundation for biological and applied sciences contribute to the course's influence on enrollment.
