AIB COLLEGE OF BUSINESS
2007-2008 GRADUATE REPORT
|
| |
| Each year, AIB Career Services surveys graduates to determine their status with regard to employment and/or education. Graduates are surveyed at the completion of their education and approximately five months after the end of the May term. Surveys are conducted via completion of the graduate petition, a paper survey with the graduation notice, an email survey, and a phone survey. Information was also gathered from faculty and staff.
Data was collected on 264 associate and bachelor graduates who completed their degrees during the period of August 2007 through May 2008. All but one graduate responded, yielding a response rate of 99.6% for the survey results. This report, known as first-destination, summarizes activity within the first year of graduation and includes AIB’s first-ever bachelor degree graduates.
