Summary of Graduation and Alumni Surveys by Department (and selected programs)
NOTES:
Participants in the Graduating Student Survey (GSS) and the Post-Graduate Survey (PGS) are invited to participate just prior to graduation, and
the Internet-based survey remains open a short period after Commencement.
The One-Year Alumni Survey is done twice a year -- in the winter for December graduates of the year before and in the summer for May and
August commencements of the previous year. The other two alumni surveys are done only once a year in either the fall or in the spring.
The three alumni surveys are accomplished using one mailing of a survey instrument with a postage-paid return envelope. Participants may also
respond via a passcode to an Internet site although relatively few do. Budgetary constraints necessitates a single mailing, although that
reduces response rates.
The major of the graduating student or the alumnus is self-reported and may differ from the officially reported degree. Some students
expecting to graduate in a given commencement will actually graduate at a later date. Simultaneous degrees in two departments or
colleges are classified as a special category rather than as separate degrees for two units. Not all degree tabulations were certified as final
at the time they had to be used for reporting. For all of the reasons listed here, the response rates are only approximations.
The organization of the data is according to the latest CB-approved academic organization. For example, all Geography majors for all time
were moved to the Department of Geosciences when that reorganization went into effect (even if the degree had been granted when that
major was in a department along with Economics). This permits comparing longitudinal data given that some departments and colleges
have experienced a number of reorganizations in recent years.
A minimum of two years of surveys is used in order to allow inclusion of a sample of all majors in a department. Three or more years of surveys
may be required to provide at least a minimum number of participants in small units. Otherwise, the number of surveys used is the set having the largest
response rate in the shortest time frame that is reasonably similar to the response pattern used for comparable units. Not every department could be
included, having failed to meet the minimum requirement of 5 responses for most questions.
All job salaries are normalized by the Consumer Price Index to May 2014 dollars to make salaries comparable.
Each of the hundred different ratings-distribution charts uses the compact Excel Sparkline tool. Top-performance is indicated by the highest columns
appearing toward the far right and little or no activity on the far left. Limitations of the software may in some cases exaggerate a difference in rating
counts within a chart, so use it primarily to see where the greatest number of ratings are focused (rather than how much one rating differs from another).
The standard error illustrates the value of one standard deviation above or below the mean. Given that the usual formula becomes less accurate with
smaller numbers of responses, a different formula is used for counts below 30 to show a more reasonable range of error for making comparisons.

Summary of Graduation and Alumni Surveys by Department (and selected programs)
NOTES:
Participants in the Graduating Student Survey (GSS) and the Post-Graduate Survey (PGS) are invited to participate just prior to graduation, and
the Internet-based survey remains open a short period after Commencement.
The One-Year Alumni Survey is done twice a year -- in the winter for December graduates of the year before and in the summer for May and
August commencements of the previous year. The other two alumni surveys are done only once a year in either the fall or in the spring.
The three alumni surveys are accomplished using one mailing of a survey instrument with a postage-paid return envelope. Participants may also
respond via a passcode to an Internet site although relatively few do. Budgetary constraints necessitates a single mailing, although that
reduces response rates.
The major of the graduating student or the alumnus is self-reported and may differ from the officially reported degree. Some students
expecting to graduate in a given commencement will actually graduate at a later date. Simultaneous degrees in two departments or
colleges are classified as a special category rather than as separate degrees for two units. Not all degree tabulations were certified as final
at the time they had to be used for reporting. For all of the reasons listed here, the response rates are only approximations.
The organization of the data is according to the latest CB-approved academic organization. For example, all Geography majors for all time
were moved to the Department of Geosciences when that reorganization went into effect (even if the degree had been granted when that
major was in a department along with Economics). This permits comparing longitudinal data given that some departments and colleges
have experienced a number of reorganizations in recent years.
A minimum of two years of surveys is used in order to allow inclusion of a sample of all majors in a department. Three or more years of surveys
may be required to provide at least a minimum number of participants in small units. Otherwise, the number of surveys used is the set having the largest
response rate in the shortest time frame that is reasonably similar to the response pattern used for comparable units. Not every department could be
included, having failed to meet the minimum requirement of 5 responses for most questions.
All job salaries are normalized by the Consumer Price Index to May 2014 dollars to make salaries comparable.
Each of the hundred different ratings-distribution charts uses the compact Excel Sparkline tool. Top-performance is indicated by the highest columns
appearing toward the far right and little or no activity on the far left. Limitations of the software may in some cases exaggerate a difference in rating
counts within a chart, so use it primarily to see where the greatest number of ratings are focused (rather than how much one rating differs from another).
The standard error illustrates the value of one standard deviation above or below the mean. Given that the usual formula becomes less accurate with
smaller numbers of responses, a different formula is used for counts below 30 to show a more reasonable range of error for making comparisons.
All questions are optional. Off-campus graduates use a shorter survey instrument. Question response counts will thus differ from the overall response.
FYI: The surveys also contain information in the Graduating Student Survey , the Post-Graduate Survey , and the 3 alumni surveys regarding . . .

Summary of Graduation and Alumni Surveys by Department (and selected programs)
NOTES:
Participants in the Graduating Student Survey (GSS) and the Post-Graduate Survey (PGS) are invited to participate just prior to graduation, and
the Internet-based survey remains open a short period after Commencement.
The One-Year Alumni Survey is done twice a year -- in the winter for December graduates of the year before and in the summer for May and
August commencements of the previous year. The other two alumni surveys are done only once a year in either the fall or in the spring.
The three alumni surveys are accomplished using one mailing of a survey instrument with a postage-paid return envelope. Participants may also
respond via a passcode to an Internet site although relatively few do. Budgetary constraints necessitates a single mailing, although that
reduces response rates.
The major of the graduating student or the alumnus is self-reported and may differ from the officially reported degree. Some students
expecting to graduate in a given commencement will actually graduate at a later date. Simultaneous degrees in two departments or
colleges are classified as a special category rather than as separate degrees for two units. Not all degree tabulations were certified as final
at the time they had to be used for reporting. For all of the reasons listed here, the response rates are only approximations.
The organization of the data is according to the latest CB-approved academic organization. For example, all Geography majors for all time
were moved to the Department of Geosciences when that reorganization went into effect (even if the degree had been granted when that
major was in a department along with Economics). This permits comparing longitudinal data given that some departments and colleges
have experienced a number of reorganizations in recent years.
A minimum of two years of surveys is used in order to allow inclusion of a sample of all majors in a department. Three or more years of surveys
may be required to provide at least a minimum number of participants in small units. Otherwise, the number of surveys used is the set having the largest
response rate in the shortest time frame that is reasonably similar to the response pattern used for comparable units. Not every department could be
included, having failed to meet the minimum requirement of 5 responses for most questions.
All job salaries are normalized by the Consumer Price Index to May 2014 dollars to make salaries comparable.
Each of the hundred different ratings-distribution charts uses the compact Excel Sparkline tool. Top-performance is indicated by the highest columns
appearing toward the far right and little or no activity on the far left. Limitations of the software may in some cases exaggerate a difference in rating
counts within a chart, so use it primarily to see where the greatest number of ratings are focused (rather than how much one rating differs from another).
The standard error illustrates the value of one standard deviation above or below the mean. Given that the usual formula becomes less accurate with
smaller numbers of responses, a different formula is used for counts below 30 to show a more reasonable range of error for making comparisons.
All questions are optional. Off-campus graduates use a shorter survey instrument. Question response counts will thus differ from the overall response.
FYI: The surveys also contain information in the Graduating Student Survey , the Post-Graduate Survey , and the 3 alumni surveys regarding . . .

Summary of Graduation and Alumni Surveys by Department
NOTES:
Participants in the Graduating Student Survey (GSS) and the Post-Graduate Survey (PGS) are invited to participate just prior to graduation, and
the Internet-based survey remains open a short period after Commencement.
The One-Year Alumni Survey is done twice a year -- in the winter for December graduates of the year before and in the summer for May and
August commencements of the previous year. The other two alumni surveys are done only once a year in either the fall or in the spring.
The three alumni surveys are accomplished using one mailing of a survey instrument with a postage-paid return envelope. Participants may also
respond via a passcode to an Internet site although relatively few do. Budgetary constraints necessitates a single mailing, although that
reduces response rates.
The major of the graduating student or the alumnus is self-reported and may differ from the officially reported degree. Some students
expecting to graduate in a given commencement will actually graduate at a later date. Simultaneous degrees in two departments or
colleges are classified as a special category rather than as separate degrees for two units. Not all degree tabulations were certified as final
at the time they had to be used for reporting. For all of the reasons listed here, the response rates are only approximations.
The organization of the data is according to the latest CB-approved academic organization. For example, all Geography majors for all time
were moved to the Department of Geosciences when that reorganization went into effect (even if the degree had been granted when that
major was in a department along with Economics). This permits comparing longitudinal data given that some departments and colleges
have experienced a number of reorganizations in recent years.
A minimum of two years of surveys is used in order to allow inclusion of a sample of all majors in a department. Three or more years of surveys
may be required to provide at least a minimum number of participants in small units. Otherwise, the number of surveys used is the set having the largest
response rate in the shortest time frame that is reasonably similar to the response pattern used for comparable units. Not every department could be
included, having failed to meet the minimum requirement of 5 responses for most questions.
All job salaries are normalized by the Consumer Price Index to May 2014 dollars to make salaries comparable.
Each of the hundred different ratings-distribution charts uses the compact Excel Sparkline tool. Top-performance is indicated by the highest columns
appearing toward the far right and little or no activity on the far left. Limitations of the software may in some cases exaggerate a difference in rating
counts within a chart, so use it primarily to see where the greatest number of ratings are focused (rather than how much one rating differs from another).
The standard error illustrates the value of one standard deviation above or below the mean. Given that the usual formula becomes less accurate with
smaller numbers of responses, a different formula is used for counts below 30 to show a more reasonable range of error for making comparisons.
All questions are optional. Off-campus graduates use a shorter survey instrument. Question response counts will thus differ from the overall response.
FYI: The surveys also contain information in the Graduating Student Survey , the Post-Graduate Survey , and the 3 alumni surveys regarding . . .

Summary of Graduation and Alumni Surveys by Department
NOTES:
Participants in the Graduating Student Survey (GSS) and the Post-Graduate Survey (PGS) are invited to participate just prior to graduation, and
the Internet-based survey remains open a short period after Commencement.
The One-Year Alumni Survey is done twice a year -- in the winter for December graduates of the year before and in the summer for May and
August commencements of the previous year. The other two alumni surveys are done only once a year in either the fall or in the spring.
The three alumni surveys are accomplished using one mailing of a survey instrument with a postage-paid return envelope. Participants may also
respond via a passcode to an Internet site although relatively few do. Budgetary constraints necessitates a single mailing, although that
reduces response rates.
The major of the graduating student or the alumnus is self-reported and may differ from the officially reported degree. Some students
expecting to graduate in a given commencement will actually graduate at a later date. Simultaneous degrees in two departments or
colleges are classified as a special category rather than as separate degrees for two units. Not all degree tabulations were certified as final
at the time they had to be used for reporting. For all of the reasons listed here, the response rates are only approximations.
The organization of the data is according to the latest CB-approved academic organization. For example, all Geography majors for all time
were moved to the Department of Geosciences when that reorganization went into effect (even if the degree had been granted when that
major was in a department along with Economics). This permits comparing longitudinal data given that some departments and colleges
have experienced a number of reorganizations in recent years.
A minimum of two years of surveys is used in order to allow inclusion of a sample of all majors in a department. Three or more years of surveys
may be required to provide at least a minimum number of participants in small units. Otherwise, the number of surveys used is the set having the largest
response rate in the shortest time frame that is reasonably similar to the response pattern used for comparable units. Not every department could be
included, having failed to meet the minimum requirement of 5 responses for most questions.
All job salaries are normalized by the Consumer Price Index to May 2014 dollars to make salaries comparable.
Each of the hundred different ratings-distribution charts uses the compact Excel Sparkline tool. Top-performance is indicated by the highest columns
appearing toward the far right and little or no activity on the far left. Limitations of the software may in some cases exaggerate a difference in rating
counts within a chart, so use it primarily to see where the greatest number of ratings are focused (rather than how much one rating differs from another).
The standard error illustrates the value of one standard deviation above or below the mean. Given that the usual formula becomes less accurate with
smaller numbers of responses, a different formula is used for counts below 30 to show a more reasonable range of error for making comparisons.
All questions are optional. Off-campus graduates use a shorter survey instrument. Question response counts will thus differ from the overall response.
FYI: The surveys also contain information in the Graduating Student Survey , the Post-Graduate Survey , and the 3 alumni surveys regarding . . .

Summary of Graduation and Alumni Surveys by Department (and selected programs)
NOTES:
Participants in the Graduating Student Survey (GSS) and the Post-Graduate Survey (PGS) are invited to participate just prior to graduation, and
the Internet-based survey remains open a short period after Commencement.
The One-Year Alumni Survey is done twice a year -- in the winter for December graduates of the year before and in the summer for May and
August commencements of the previous year. The other two alumni surveys are done only once a year in either the fall or in the spring.
The three alumni surveys are accomplished using one mailing of a survey instrument with a postage-paid return envelope. Participants may also
respond via a passcode to an Internet site although relatively few do. Budgetary constraints necessitates a single mailing, although that
reduces response rates.
The major of the graduating student or the alumnus is self-reported and may differ from the officially reported degree. Some students
expecting to graduate in a given commencement will actually graduate at a later date. Simultaneous degrees in two departments or
colleges are classified as a special category rather than as separate degrees for two units. Not all degree tabulations were certified as final
at the time they had to be used for reporting. For all of the reasons listed here, the response rates are only approximations.
The organization of the data is according to the latest CB-approved academic organization. For example, all Geography majors for all time
were moved to the Department of Geosciences when that reorganization went into effect (even if the degree had been granted when that
major was in a department along with Economics). This permits comparing longitudinal data given that some departments and colleges
have experienced a number of reorganizations in recent years.
A minimum of two years of surveys is used in order to allow inclusion of a sample of all majors in a department. Three or more years of surveys
may be required to provide at least a minimum number of participants in small units. Otherwise, the number of surveys used is the set having the largest
response rate in the shortest time frame that is reasonably similar to the response pattern used for comparable units. Not every department could be
included, having failed to meet the minimum requirement of 5 responses for most questions.
All job salaries are normalized by the Consumer Price Index to May 2014 dollars to make salaries comparable.
Each of the hundred different ratings-distribution charts uses the compact Excel Sparkline tool. Top-performance is indicated by the highest columns
appearing toward the far right and little or no activity on the far left. Limitations of the software may in some cases exaggerate a difference in rating
counts within a chart, so use it primarily to see where the greatest number of ratings are focused (rather than how much one rating differs from another).
The standard error illustrates the value of one standard deviation above or below the mean. Given that the usual formula becomes less accurate with
smaller numbers of responses, a different formula is used for counts below 30 to show a more reasonable range of error for making comparisons.
All questions are optional. Off-campus graduates use a shorter survey instrument. Question response counts will thus differ from the overall response.
FYI: The surveys also contain information in the Graduating Student Survey , the Post-Graduate Survey , and the 3 alumni surveys regarding . . .

Summary of Graduation and Alumni Surveys by Department
NOTES:
Participants in the Graduating Student Survey (GSS) and the Post-Graduate Survey (PGS) are invited to participate just prior to graduation, and
the Internet-based survey remains open a short period after Commencement.
The One-Year Alumni Survey is done twice a year -- in the winter for December graduates of the year before and in the summer for May and
August commencements of the previous year. The other two alumni surveys are done only once a year in either the fall or in the spring.
The three alumni surveys are accomplished using one mailing of a survey instrument with a postage-paid return envelope. Participants may also
respond via a passcode to an Internet site although relatively few do. Budgetary constraints necessitates a single mailing, although that
reduces response rates.
The major of the graduating student or the alumnus is self-reported and may differ from the officially reported degree. Some students
expecting to graduate in a given commencement will actually graduate at a later date. Simultaneous degrees in two departments or
colleges are classified as a special category rather than as separate degrees for two units. Not all degree tabulations were certified as final
at the time they had to be used for reporting. For all of the reasons listed here, the response rates are only approximations.
The organization of the data is according to the latest CB-approved academic organization. For example, all Geography majors for all time
were moved to the Department of Geosciences when that reorganization went into effect (even if the degree had been granted when that
major was in a department along with Economics). This permits comparing longitudinal data given that some departments and colleges
have experienced a number of reorganizations in recent years.
A minimum of two years of surveys is used in order to allow inclusion of a sample of all majors in a department. Three or more years of surveys
may be required to provide at least a minimum number of participants in small units. Otherwise, the number of surveys used is the set having the largest
response rate in the shortest time frame that is reasonably similar to the response pattern used for comparable units. Not every department could be
included, having failed to meet the minimum requirement of 5 responses for most questions.
All job salaries are normalized by the Consumer Price Index to May 2014 dollars to make salaries comparable.
Each of the hundred different ratings-distribution charts uses the compact Excel Sparkline tool. Top-performance is indicated by the highest columns
appearing toward the far right and little or no activity on the far left. Limitations of the software may in some cases exaggerate a difference in rating
counts within a chart, so use it primarily to see where the greatest number of ratings are focused (rather than how much one rating differs from another).
The standard error illustrates the value of one standard deviation above or below the mean. Given that the usual formula becomes less accurate with
smaller numbers of responses, a different formula is used for counts below 30 to show a more reasonable range of error for making comparisons.
All questions are optional. Off-campus graduates use a shorter survey instrument. Question response counts will thus differ from the overall response.
FYI: The surveys also contain information in the Graduating Student Survey , the Post-Graduate Survey , and the 3 alumni surveys regarding . . .

Summary of Graduation and Alumni Surveys by Department
NOTES:
Participants in the Graduating Student Survey (GSS) and the Post-Graduate Survey (PGS) are invited to participate just prior to graduation, and
the Internet-based survey remains open a short period after Commencement.
The One-Year Alumni Survey is done twice a year -- in the winter for December graduates of the year before and in the summer for May and
August commencements of the previous year. The other two alumni surveys are done only once a year in either the fall or in the spring.
The three alumni surveys are accomplished using one mailing of a survey instrument with a postage-paid return envelope. Participants may also
respond via a passcode to an Internet site although relatively few do. Budgetary constraints necessitates a single mailing, although that
reduces response rates.
The major of the graduating student or the alumnus is self-reported and may differ from the officially reported degree. Some students
expecting to graduate in a given commencement will actually graduate at a later date. Simultaneous degrees in two departments or
colleges are classified as a special category rather than as separate degrees for two units. Not all degree tabulations were certified as final
at the time they had to be used for reporting. For all of the reasons listed here, the response rates are only approximations.
The organization of the data is according to the latest CB-approved academic organization. For example, all Geography majors for all time
were moved to the Department of Geosciences when that reorganization went into effect (even if the degree had been granted when that
major was in a department along with Economics). This permits comparing longitudinal data given that some departments and colleges
have experienced a number of reorganizations in recent years.
A minimum of two years of surveys is used in order to allow inclusion of a sample of all majors in a department. Three or more years of surveys
may be required to provide at least a minimum number of participants in small units. Otherwise, the number of surveys used is the set having the largest
response rate in the shortest time frame that is reasonably similar to the response pattern used for comparable units. Not every department could be
included, having failed to meet the minimum requirement of 5 responses for most questions.
All job salaries are normalized by the Consumer Price Index to May 2014 dollars to make salaries comparable.
Each of the hundred different ratings-distribution charts uses the compact Excel Sparkline tool. Top-performance is indicated by the highest columns
appearing toward the far right and little or no activity on the far left. Limitations of the software may in some cases exaggerate a difference in rating
counts within a chart, so use it primarily to see where the greatest number of ratings are focused (rather than how much one rating differs from another).
The standard error illustrates the value of one standard deviation above or below the mean. Given that the usual formula becomes less accurate with
smaller numbers of responses, a different formula is used for counts below 30 to show a more reasonable range of error for making comparisons.
All questions are optional. Off-campus graduates use a shorter survey instrument. Question response counts will thus differ from the overall response.
FYI: The surveys also contain information in the Graduating Student Survey , the Post-Graduate Survey , and the 3 alumni surveys regarding . . .

Summary of Graduation and Alumni Surveys by Department
NOTES:
Participants in the Graduating Student Survey (GSS) and the Post-Graduate Survey (PGS) are invited to participate just prior to graduation, and
the Internet-based survey remains open a short period after Commencement.
The One-Year Alumni Survey is done twice a year -- in the winter for December graduates of the year before and in the summer for May and
August commencements of the previous year. The other two alumni surveys are done only once a year in either the fall or in the spring.
The three alumni surveys are accomplished using one mailing of a survey instrument with a postage-paid return envelope. Participants may also
respond via a passcode to an Internet site although relatively few do. Budgetary constraints necessitates a single mailing, although that
reduces response rates.
The major of the graduating student or the alumnus is self-reported and may differ from the officially reported degree. Some students
expecting to graduate in a given commencement will actually graduate at a later date. Simultaneous degrees in two departments or
colleges are classified as a special category rather than as separate degrees for two units. Not all degree tabulations were certified as final
at the time they had to be used for reporting. For all of the reasons listed here, the response rates are only approximations.
The organization of the data is according to the latest CB-approved academic organization. For example, all Geography majors for all time
were moved to the Department of Geosciences when that reorganization went into effect (even if the degree had been granted when that
major was in a department along with Economics). This permits comparing longitudinal data given that some departments and colleges
have experienced a number of reorganizations in recent years.
A minimum of two years of surveys is used in order to allow inclusion of a sample of all majors in a department. Three or more years of surveys
may be required to provide at least a minimum number of participants in small units. Otherwise, the number of surveys used is the set having the largest
response rate in the shortest time frame that is reasonably similar to the response pattern used for comparable units. Not every department could be
included, having failed to meet the minimum requirement of 5 responses for most questions.
All job salaries are normalized by the Consumer Price Index to May 2014 dollars to make salaries comparable.
Each of the hundred different ratings-distribution charts uses the compact Excel Sparkline tool. Top-performance is indicated by the highest columns
appearing toward the far right and little or no activity on the far left. Limitations of the software may in some cases exaggerate a difference in rating
counts within a chart, so use it primarily to see where the greatest number of ratings are focused (rather than how much one rating differs from another).
The standard error illustrates the value of one standard deviation above or below the mean. Given that the usual formula becomes less accurate with
smaller numbers of responses, a different formula is used for counts below 30 to show a more reasonable range of error for making comparisons.
All questions are optional. Off-campus graduates use a shorter survey instrument. Question response counts will thus differ from the overall response.
FYI: The surveys also contain information in the Graduating Student Survey , the Post-Graduate Survey , and the 3 alumni surveys regarding . . .

Summary of Graduation and Alumni Surveys by Department
NOTES:
Participants in the Graduating Student Survey (GSS) and the Post-Graduate Survey (PGS) are invited to participate just prior to graduation, and
the Internet-based survey remains open a short period after Commencement.
The One-Year Alumni Survey is done twice a year -- in the winter for December graduates of the year before and in the summer for May and
August commencements of the previous year. The other two alumni surveys are done only once a year in either the fall or in the spring.
The three alumni surveys are accomplished using one mailing of a survey instrument with a postage-paid return envelope. Participants may also
respond via a passcode to an Internet site although relatively few do. Budgetary constraints necessitates a single mailing, although that
reduces response rates.
The major of the graduating student or the alumnus is self-reported and may differ from the officially reported degree. Some students
expecting to graduate in a given commencement will actually graduate at a later date. Simultaneous degrees in two departments or
colleges are classified as a special category rather than as separate degrees for two units. Not all degree tabulations were certified as final
at the time they had to be used for reporting. For all of the reasons listed here, the response rates are only approximations.
The organization of the data is according to the latest CB-approved academic organization. For example, all Geography majors for all time
were moved to the Department of Geosciences when that reorganization went into effect (even if the degree had been granted when that
major was in a department along with Economics). This permits comparing longitudinal data given that some departments and colleges
have experienced a number of reorganizations in recent years.
A minimum of two years of surveys is used in order to allow inclusion of a sample of all majors in a department. Three or more years of surveys
may be required to provide at least a minimum number of participants in small units. Otherwise, the number of surveys used is the set having the largest
response rate in the shortest time frame that is reasonably similar to the response pattern used for comparable units. Not every department could be
included, having failed to meet the minimum requirement of 5 responses for most questions.
All job salaries are normalized by the Consumer Price Index to May 2014 dollars to make salaries comparable.
Each of the hundred different ratings-distribution charts uses the compact Excel Sparkline tool. Top-performance is indicated by the highest columns
appearing toward the far right and little or no activity on the far left. Limitations of the software may in some cases exaggerate a difference in rating
counts within a chart, so use it primarily to see where the greatest number of ratings are focused (rather than how much one rating differs from another).
The standard error illustrates the value of one standard deviation above or below the mean. Given that the usual formula becomes less accurate with
smaller numbers of responses, a different formula is used for counts below 30 to show a more reasonable range of error for making comparisons.
All questions are optional. Off-campus graduates use a shorter survey instrument. Question response counts will thus differ from the overall response.
FYI: The surveys also contain information in the Graduating Student Survey , the Post-Graduate Survey , and the 3 alumni surveys regarding . . .

Summary of Graduation and Alumni Surveys by Department
NOTES:
Participants in the Graduating Student Survey (GSS) and the Post-Graduate Survey (PGS) are invited to participate just prior to graduation, and
the Internet-based survey remains open a short period after Commencement.
The One-Year Alumni Survey is done twice a year -- in the winter for December graduates of the year before and in the summer for May and
August commencements of the previous year. The other two alumni surveys are done only once a year in either the fall or in the spring.
The three alumni surveys are accomplished using one mailing of a survey instrument with a postage-paid return envelope. Participants may also
respond via a passcode to an Internet site although relatively few do. Budgetary constraints necessitates a single mailing, although that
reduces response rates.
The major of the graduating student or the alumnus is self-reported and may differ from the officially reported degree. Some students
expecting to graduate in a given commencement will actually graduate at a later date. Simultaneous degrees in two departments or
colleges are classified as a special category rather than as separate degrees for two units. Not all degree tabulations were certified as final
at the time they had to be used for reporting. For all of the reasons listed here, the response rates are only approximations.
The organization of the data is according to the latest CB-approved academic organization. For example, all Geography majors for all time
were moved to the Department of Geosciences when that reorganization went into effect (even if the degree had been granted when that
major was in a department along with Economics). This permits comparing longitudinal data given that some departments and colleges
have experienced a number of reorganizations in recent years.
A minimum of two years of surveys is used in order to allow inclusion of a sample of all majors in a department. Three or more years of surveys
may be required to provide at least a minimum number of participants in small units. Otherwise, the number of surveys used is the set having the largest
response rate in the shortest time frame that is reasonably similar to the response pattern used for comparable units. Not every department could be
included, having failed to meet the minimum requirement of 5 responses for most questions.
All job salaries are normalized by the Consumer Price Index to May 2014 dollars to make salaries comparable.
Each of the hundred different ratings-distribution charts uses the compact Excel Sparkline tool. Top-performance is indicated by the highest columns
appearing toward the far right and little or no activity on the far left. Limitations of the software may in some cases exaggerate a difference in rating
counts within a chart, so use it primarily to see where the greatest number of ratings are focused (rather than how much one rating differs from another).
The standard error illustrates the value of one standard deviation above or below the mean. Given that the usual formula becomes less accurate with
smaller numbers of responses, a different formula is used for counts below 30 to show a more reasonable range of error for making comparisons.
All questions are optional. Off-campus graduates use a shorter survey instrument. Question response counts will thus differ from the overall response.
FYI: The surveys also contain information in the Graduating Student Survey , the Post-Graduate Survey , and the 3 alumni surveys regarding . . .

Summary of Graduation and Alumni Surveys by Department (and selected programs)
NOTES:
Participants in the Graduating Student Survey (GSS) and the Post-Graduate Survey (PGS) are invited to participate just prior to graduation, and
the Internet-based survey remains open a short period after Commencement.
The One-Year Alumni Survey is done twice a year -- in the winter for December graduates of the year before and in the summer for May and
August commencements of the previous year. The other two alumni surveys are done only once a year in either the fall or in the spring.
The three alumni surveys are accomplished using one mailing of a survey instrument with a postage-paid return envelope. Participants may also
respond via a passcode to an Internet site although relatively few do. Budgetary constraints necessitates a single mailing, although that
reduces response rates.
The major of the graduating student or the alumnus is self-reported and may differ from the officially reported degree. Some students
expecting to graduate in a given commencement will actually graduate at a later date. Simultaneous degrees in two departments or
colleges are classified as a special category rather than as separate degrees for two units. Not all degree tabulations were certified as final
at the time they had to be used for reporting. For all of the reasons listed here, the response rates are only approximations.
The organization of the data is according to the latest CB-approved academic organization. For example, all Geography majors for all time
were moved to the Department of Geosciences when that reorganization went into effect (even if the degree had been granted when that
major was in a department along with Economics). This permits comparing longitudinal data given that some departments and colleges
have experienced a number of reorganizations in recent years.
A minimum of two years of surveys is used in order to allow inclusion of a sample of all majors in a department. Three or more years of surveys
may be required to provide at least a minimum number of participants in small units. Otherwise, the number of surveys used is the set having the largest
response rate in the shortest time frame that is reasonably similar to the response pattern used for comparable units. Not every department could be
included, having failed to meet the minimum requirement of 5 responses for most questions.
All job salaries are normalized by the Consumer Price Index to May 2014 dollars to make salaries comparable.
Each of the hundred different ratings-distribution charts uses the compact Excel Sparkline tool. Top-performance is indicated by the highest columns
appearing toward the far right and little or no activity on the far left. Limitations of the software may in some cases exaggerate a difference in rating
counts within a chart, so use it primarily to see where the greatest number of ratings are focused (rather than how much one rating differs from another).
The standard error illustrates the value of one standard deviation above or below the mean. Given that the usual formula becomes less accurate with
smaller numbers of responses, a different formula is used for counts below 30 to show a more reasonable range of error for making comparisons.
All questions are optional. Off-campus graduates use a shorter survey instrument. Question response counts will thus differ from the overall response.
FYI: The surveys also contain information in the Graduating Student Survey , the Post-Graduate Survey , and the 3 alumni surveys regarding . . .
