For this, the body of knowledge in strategy, teaching and research methods and techniques, as well as the pedagogical schools used by teachers, from the perspective of Sociology of Knowledge, are used in the social construction of the reality of the field. The research is qualitative, using the multiple case study method, through the application of semistructured interviews with the strategy teachers of the 28 professional master's programs in management that have in their curriculum the discipline of strategy. In addition, a data triangulation was developed with lattes curricula of research subjects, menus and teaching plans. It was possible to understand that as regards the body of knowledge used by the teachers / researchers, the same one approaches the main authors of the field of the strategy, but it includes different authors related to the field of research, knowledge and academic formation of the teachers. Among the most used teaching techniques are the case method, the expository and dialogic classes, the debates and discussions and the seminars, being the written evaluations, individual and group work and the composition of articles the main evaluation methodologies. The main research methodologies were the qualitative ones, however, a direct relation with the research objectives was perceived, causing an alternation between the qualitative and quantitative methodologies. The most frequent methods of data collection were interviews, documents and surveys. The most used methods of analysis were content and speech analysis and statistical analysis with the use of software. Regarding the social role of the interviewees, it was possible to understand that it is not restricted to teaching and research, but it is related to other roles such as coordination, administrative, evaluator, editor, consultant and others. It was relevant the relationship between theory and practice presented by the interviewees, a relationship that permeated from the selection of students to the final product of research developed by students in professional masters. Finally, in the developed diagnosis it was possible to understand that the dissemination of the research data can contribute to the advances in the field of strategy in the professional masters in administration. / Este estudo tem o objetivo de compreender como se constitui o ensino e a pesquisa em estratégia nos mestrados profissionais em administração sob a ótica dos docentes. Para tanto, utiliza-se o corpo de conhecimento em estratégia, os métodos e técnicas de ensino e pesquisa, e também as escolas pedagógicas utilizadas pelos docentes, sob a perspectiva da Sociologia do Conhecimento, na construção social da realidade do campo. A pesquisa é qualitativa, com a utilização do método de estudo de casos múltiplos, por meio da aplicação de entrevistas semiestruturadas com os docentes de estratégia dos 28 programas de mestrados profissionais em administração que tenham em seu currículo a disciplina de estratégia. Além disso, foi desenvolvida uma triangulação de dados com os currículos lattes dos sujeitos de pesquisa, as ementas e planos de ensino. Foi possível compreender que quanto ao corpo de conhecimento utilizado pelos docentes/pesquisadores, o mesmo aborda os principais autores do campo da estratégia, porém, engloba diferentes autores relacionados ao campo de pesquisa, conhecimento e formação acadêmica dos docentes. Dentre as técnicas de ensino mais utilizadas se destacam o método de caso, as aulas expositivas e dialogadas, os debates e discussões e os seminários, sendo as avaliações escritas, trabalhos individuais e em grupo e a composição de artigos as principais metodologias de avaliação. As principais metodologias de pesquisa foram as qualitativas, porém, percebeu-se uma relação direta com os objetivos de pesquisa, ocasionando uma alternância entre as metodologias qualitativas e quantitativas. Os métodos de coleta de dados mais frequentes foram as entrevistas, os documentos e surveys. Os métodos de análise mais utilizados foram análise de conteúdo e do discurso e as análises estatísticas com a utilização de softwares. Quanto ao papel social dos entrevistados, foi possível compreender que não se restringe ao de docência e pesquisa, mas se relaciona com outros papéis como de coordenação, administrativos, avaliador, editor, consultor entre outros. Foi relevante a relação entre teoria e prática apresentada pelos entrevistados, relação esta que permeou desde a seleção dos mestrandos até o produto final da pesquisa desenvolvida pelos discentes nos mestrados profissionais. Por fim, no diagnóstico desenvolvido, foi possível compreender que a divulgação dos dados da pesquisa pode contribuir para os avanços no campo da estratégia nos mestrados profissionais em administração.

The aim of this master's thesis is design of an indoor swimming pool in the town of Náměšť nad Oslavou. The thesis contains project documentation, technical reports, reports of fire safety and assessment of building physics. There are two swimming pools designed in the building, main swimming pool of lenght 25m and a smaller one for children. Next to the pool hall a wellness area is placed consisting of three saunas, as well as cooling pool and a rest room. The proposed building has one ground floor and one basement level. Load-bearing structures are made of reinforced concrete except for the structure of the roof in the pool hall which is constructed from glued timber trusses. A glass facade is designed in this part of the building. Perimeter walls are thermally insulated using polystyrene foam. The roof is designed as a compact roof with foam glass thermal insulation.

Magnetic data storing has been of great interest since 1950 when the first magnetic hard drive was fabricated. A lot has happened since then, but there is still a need for smaller and cheaper devices.  One way to achieve this is by creating nano-sized ferromagnetic areas in a thin film at room temperature, or nano-magnets. In this thesis, the aim is to fabricate and characterize novel amorphous nano-magnets. Using a chromium mask ions can be implanted in a nano-sized pattern in an amorphous iron zirconium thin film. The mask is fabricated by depositing chromium over the iron zirconium and etching the nano-structures into the chromium film.  This requires the parameters for the etching to be optimized. It is discovered the parameters change with the size and shape of the pattern. Magnetization and structural characterization were performed by using the magneto-optical Kerr effect and a magnetic force microscope. The result shows that the nano-magnets become magnetically harder than the reference sample. The study further reveals structural details for further improvements in implanted regions. / <p>Opponent: Stivan Sabir</p>

Writing effectively in an academic setting is a challenge for many students, especially at the graduate level. Graduate students often struggle with the demands of writing a thesis, which is a specific genre of writing with its own set of standards, norms and conventions. The difficulties described above deepen for students who have to write in their second language. Since language and writing are culture specific, each language has its own unique rhetorical conventions. By comparing three different theses, this study aims to identify the differences between Thai and English discourse. Understanding these differences will provide some guidance to Thai students who are writing their theses in English.

The goal of this research was to determine how the nursing faculty shortage in Florida was being addressed. The purpose of this descriptive, comparative study was to explore program length, size, and admission criteria of master's of science in nursing (MSN) degree programs. Characteristics of both traditional and non-traditional programs that offered the education specialty were examined. Non-traditional programs included registered nurse to master's of science in nursing (RN-MSN) degree programs. Characteristics of students enrolled in the education track of these programs were also compared, based on participant's entry level into nursing practice. The three comparison groups included diploma prepared nurses, associate degree prepared nurses, and baccalaureate prepared nurses. Comparative and descriptive statistics with cross tabulations and frequencies, were used to determine comparisons, based on responses to questionnaire items that focused on reasons for entering the program, financial assistance, program satisfaction, goals, future plans, years of experience, nursing specialty, employment status, and demographics. The literature review found very few current studies on non-traditional and traditional MSN degree programs. Results of this study found only nine programs in the state that offered an MSN with a nursing education specialty with participation elicited from five of those nine programs. Findings revealed that within those programs were a variety of both traditional and non-traditional options that were unique in how they were organized and administered. Descriptive, comparative analysis revealed no significant differences in student characteristics of the three identified groups for those enrolled in master's level coursework in the nursing education specialty in spring of 2006. Overall, participants in the MSN programs indicated that they chose the program because they needed it for advancement, they wanted additional knowledge and skills, and the reputation and location were important. Their education was financed with personal earnings or loans. Upon completion of the program they planned to stay in their current positions and continue for a doctoral degree or specialty certification in nursing. Within 10 years they planned to be working as a faculty member in a nursing program. They were Caucasian women, aged 41-55, who lived with a significant other and children, worked more than 33 hours per week in critical care, pediatrics or education, and had more than 20 years of work experience. Findings indicated that the diversity of the MSN programs made no difference in the types of students that were attracted to the programs. These findings may be used to target recruitment efforts toward those interested in becoming nursing faculty in an effort to help alleviate the nursing faculty shortage in Florida.
