Assessing Undergraduates' Patterns of Credit Distribution: Amount and Specialization.
Boyer, Carol M.; Ahlgren, Andrew
Journal of Higher Education, v58 n4 p430-42 Jul-Aug 1987
A study of patterns of undergraduates' credit-distribution in three major fields of study (mathematics, political science, and English) at the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities, is described. Students' extra-major credit distribution was less than it might have been and extra-major specialization greater than it needed to be. (MLW)
