Preparing faculty for the allied health professions: a follow-up study of a program's graduates.
Since 1972, Baylor College of Medicine, the University of Houston and Texas A&M University have jointly offered a graduate Program in Allied Health Teacher Education and Administration. The purpose of the program is to prepare faculty and administrative leaders for allied health education programs. As of December 1978, a total of 94 allied health professionals had completed master's or doctoral degrees and most of them are currently pursuing academic careers. This article describes the results of a follow-up study of these graduates to determine their current activities, locations and job satisfaction and to make decisions regarding the success of the program in raching its goals.
