title: Curriculum intent and the graduate's perception of professional needs: a critical analysis.
abstract: Curriculum evaluation has been advocated since the early 1920s, yet few professional curriculum evaluation studies have been done. Thus, educators with the responsibility for the development of professional curricula have little empirical evidence to support rational decision making. This research study represents one approach to curriculum evaluation--providing empirical evidence to support rational curriculum decisions.
