Abstract:
Undergraduate major selection is one of the first steps in attaining a satisfying career. Research confirms that values play a critical role in the selection process, regardless of the academic endeavor. This study determined Environmental Studies/Natural Resources majors at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln have a significantly different identification of value intensity than a national sample of university students and this information is critical to recruitment, advising and career placement efforts. A one-sample z test revealed five of 21 sub-scales were statistically different for the University of Nebraska-Lincoln group.
