| dc.description.abstract | In the United States, graduate education has become necessary to maintain a stable economy (Pascale, 2018). According to Torpey and Watson (2014), jobs requiring a master’s degree or higher represent the fastest growing employment opportunities and are expected to increase by 18% by the year 2022. Similarly, research suggests as many as 10% of management-level or higher jobs will require graduate training. According to the National Center for Educational Statistics (2019), as many as three million graduate students attend degree-granting postsecondary institutions in the United States. Despite this growing need for universities to produce graduate students, as many as 50% of graduate students leave prior to earning their degree (Nettles & Millet, 2006). | |
