have adequate time or willingness to mentor students, nor the emotional intelligence to run a lab and manage people. The doctor was only interested in the lab’s scientific discoveries as opposed to new ideas that were presented.

Ultimately, the doctor fulfilled the role of an advisor which was limited to guiding academic progress, but did not adequately fulfill…

They should educate themselves of the demands that the selected field will require. Tinto V. (1993) (p.231) wrote that an important reason why there is…

Hypothesis This study attempts to assess two research hypotheses. Our hypothesis answers the research question, what difference, if any, can be found between the two concentration when describing dissertation characteristics? Our first hypothesis (H1) states that clinical track dissertations are more likely to be experimental than administrative track dissertations. Our second hypothesis (H2) states administrative track dissertations are more likely to have advanced statistical analyses than…
