摘要:Students who started degrees September 2007 will, all being well, graduate one tenth of the way into the century. So, have we posed the question, what that degree should be ‘like’? I believe not.The question posed is important, especially for a non-vocational subject like Geography (and may also be applied to GEES disciplines in general) with respect to recruitment, retention and ‘return’:What attracts a student to a degree programme?What attracts students’ parents to a degree programme?What are students expecting from such a degree in general?What expectations does the government have about degrees?What expectations do employers have about degrees? This paper aims to start refining a conjecture and, perhaps, a debate about our expectations of a GEES degree and its delivery.
