PEST analysis of Learning in HE #3 Social

A degree in Nursing does not make you care more.
A degree in Media studies does not make you more creative.
A degree in Business does not make you more entrepreneurial.

Some of society's needs are met by the excellent training and qualification of professionals - lawyers, vets, doctors, accountants, scientists and engineers...but some are not.


Society seems to want Higher Education to deliver things it was never created to do. Is this simply society looking for a "one size fits all" solution or a complete misunderstanding of Higher Education?

I'm glad that I don't have to worry about that.
