As depicted in Table 1, the range of names for degrees relating to HRD is almost as
diverse as the number of universities sampled. However, some synergy was found when
considering program names containing the key words: human, resource, and development. In
particular, 5 (18.5%) of the programs sampled exclusively used HRD to name their
undergraduate degree. When considering programs with HRD in their names, the number of
programs increases to eight. This finding is significant as the resulting percentage (29.6%) comes
close to what Kuchinke (2002) found when studying graduate programs (32.7%).
