Summary Report of the 2008 Career Plans Survey

Click here for the complete Summary Report

Every year, the Office of Institutional Research and Planning, with the assistance of the Bank of America Career Services Center, surveys University degree recipients to ascertain students' post-UD employment and educational plans. This report summarizes the career and educational plans of students who completed their degree requirements at the University of Delaware between Fall 2007 and Summer 2008 (07F, 08W, 08S, and 08J). Surveys were mailed to all undergraduate and graduate degree recipients in October 2008 and a follow-up mailing was conducted in December for students who did not return the original questionnaire.

For the 2008 cohort, our overall response rate for undergraduate degree recipients was approximately 34 percent; for graduate degree recipients it was approximately 29 percent. The data available on this website reflect the structure of the seven undergraduate and graduate colleges in place during the 2007-08 academic year.

For a more detailed explanation of the data contained in the Career Plans Reports, please see the Technical Appendix. There is also a sample Survey available.
