The shock of the new: students' perceptions of a collaborative degree

This paper examines the responses of part-time students to a collaborative management degree. The case study program is set within the national context in terms of innovative developments in management education. It is identified as possessing the typical attributes of such programs: flexibility, modularity, employer specificity and high employer input in teaching and assessment. While there has been much argument about the desirability of such developments, there has been little work into the perceptions of students undertaking such programs. The case study takes a longitudinal view, examining the reactions of students at the University of Strathclyde, Scotland, by means of a survey and a series of in-depth interviews.
