We are invested in your successes and endeavors after you graduate. The Career Development Center collects data each year using the Graduating Student Survey which is administered in conjunction with the Higher Education Data Sharing (HEDS) Consortium. The Graduating Student Survey asks graduating students to evaluate the teaching practices and institutional conditions they experienced as undergraduates, to assess the impact of their experiences on their intellectual growth and how well it prepared them for success after college, and to describe their plans after graduation. An analysis of the Spring 2023 and Spring 2024 Graduating Student Survey can be found here.
