Results on Alumni Questionnaire for 2003 Graduates

The University's Centre for Learning Enhancement And Research (CLEAR) conducted the Alumni Questionnaire for all 2003 graduates of 20 selected undergraduate programmes from 6 faculties in November 2008. The objective of the survey was to learn from alumni, after 5 years of their graduation, how well their degree had prepared them for their career. Some 275 responses were received, which is 23% of the selected graduates. The overall responses are positive in terms of the development of the identified capabilities contributed by the programmes.
