This paper seeks to examine students' values in ‘relationship to their studies.’ After defining the concept within this rubric, we attempt to define the values at work from the perspectives of (1) the motivation for pursuing post-secondary studies; (2) the pace of studies; (3) the time devoted to study; (4) the time spent in the institutions; and (5) student culture. The study focuses on students enrolled in the medicine and sociology programs. Our paper draws primarily from the results of an online survey and interviews of a sampling of the target student population, with the analysis in both cases developed in light of the distinction between ‘instrumental’ values and ‘expressive’ values. The analysis presented here is based on theories recently developed in France and Quebec regarding values, students and student attitudes toward their program of study
