I further agree that permission for extensive copying of this thesis for scholarly purposes may be granted by the head of my department or by his or her representatives.

Department The University of British Columbia Vancouver, Canada DE-6 (2/88) -11- ABSTRACT The nature and role of higher education is changing. The relationship between the University, the student, and greater society is shifting. Internal (e.g., concerns about accessibility and inclusion) and external (e.g., funding and market demands) forces are converging in a way that demands a reconceptulization of higher education and the learning process. This thesis tries to identify and integrate varying facets that contribute to the changing landscape of university education, specifically focusing on the increased interest in applied learning opportunities at the post-secondary level, and the ways in which different professional and academic programs are incorporating such opportunities into their programs.
