Tyler, Naomi C.; Smith, Deborah Deutsch; Pion, Georgine M.
Teacher Education and Special Education, v26 n3 p194-205 Sum 2003
A survey of 1,267 doctoral students found their primary consideration in selecting a doctoral program was not having to relocate. Students were fairly satisfied with the training they received in research skills, less so in areas of college teaching, administration/supervision, and diversity. Less than half were interested in faculty positions. (Contains references.) (Author/CR)
