The Alumni Survey was developed by the Alumni Survey Development Committee from summer 2002 through spring 2003 and was administered by the office of Institutional Research from fall 2003 through January 2004. It was designed to ascertain how alumni felt about their experiences at CSUDH and how their experiences here affected their lives. The Alumni Survey Committee developed eight topic areas in order to concentrate attention on particular areas of interest. These areas were designed to provide feedback on the following questions:

Topic Areas:

How did the university contribute to alumni’s personal development?

To what extent do alumni attribute their career success to their educational experiences at CSUDH?

How is the reputation of CSUDH viewed by our alumni?

To what extent do alumni feel connected to or have an interest in the university?

What do alumni think about the quality of the education that they experienced while a student at CSUDH?

How did our alumni benefit from our diverse campus environment?

How did various off-campus delivery systems impact on their experience and education as a student?

To what extent did the curriculum taught at CSUDH prepare our students for the work environment and/or advanced degrees?
