Tóm tắt
Program descriptions from 54 English-speaking sociology departments were analyzed to uncover promotional themes for prospective students. Variations in these messages were found when comparing departments from doctoral-comprehensive and primarily undergraduate universities. Patterns were noted in the stated promise of the program (liberal arts education, career pathway, or improvement of social conditions), skills to be acquired (market based or critical thinking), and the learning experience to be expected (elite education, accessible learning environment, or intellectual stimulation). After reporting on these patterns, we consider their implications within the context of broader issues in higher education. © 2010 Canadian Sociological Association.
