Job study receives funds
A supplemental grant of $78,000 to the University from the Office of
Naval Research will permit the continuation of research on ‘Commit
ment, Careers and Retention in Organizations,’ a study of behavioral
factors linking people to their jobs.
Richard Steers and Richard Mowday, University assistant profes
sors of management, are conducting the research, which the Navy has
sponsored since 1975. A $16,000 portion of the grant has been sub
contracted to the University of California at Irvine for the same research.
The purpose of the job commitment study, which despite its spon
sor is not aimed at the military, is to establish models of behavior that
would help explain absenteeism and job turnover, Steers says.
Steers estimates that the research will be completed by the end of
this year, and a subsequent book on the psychology underlying job
commitment should be ready by 1981.

MBA program offered
The University of College of Business Administration has approved
a program allowing outstanding non-business undergraduates toobtain
the master of business administration degree, in addition to the
bachelor’s degree, in five rather than six years.
According to Del Hawkins, director of the masters program in
business, the program is “desirable because it will enable us to com
pete more effectively for outstanding students.”
As usual, the student will be granted a bachelor’s degree after the
fourth year, but the final year of undergraduate study will be devoted
almost exclusively to courses required for an MBA, he says.
It may be necessary for some departments to modify their require
ments to make the “3-2 program” (Three years bachelor work; two
years masters) possible, Hawkins says.
Applications for admission to the 3-2 MBA program must be sub
mitted by May 1 of the student’s junior year. Admissions are limited to
fall terms. Minimum admission criteria are: A Graduate Management
Admission Test, GMAT, score of 550 or more; a cumulative grade index
of at least 3.4; three personal recommendations from persons qualified
to comment on a student’s potential for graduate study and a statement
of no more than 1,000 words in which the applicant outlines his objec
tives for the proposed program of study.
For more information contact Del Hawkins in 270B Gilbert Hall, or
call 686-3306.
Symposium scheduled
Flegistration applications are now being accepted for a two-day
symposium on “Behavioral Theory and Therapy.”

cation departments, will be held March 3 and 4 at the Valley River
Center and includes panel discussions and speeches on behavioral
counseling in many areas of therapy.
For more information contact chairer Joanna Hoskins at 342-7816,
