METHODOLOGYGraduates’ information is gathered in multiple ways. Four weeks prior to commencement attendees of theSenior Countdown are asked to complete a survey which is input by Career Services into the online survey.Prior to commencement, an online survey is sent to all graduating students to complete. All graduates receivea paper copy of the survey in their diploma, which they can complete and mail back or complete online. Atthree and six months all students who have not completed a survey or who reported they were seekingemployment are re-sent the online survey.Additionally, six months after graduation, a search is conducted via social media, primarily LinkedIn, to findgraduates who have not reported any data. Faculty also provide some data. This data is added to the resultsfrom the survey.Knowledge rate is defined by the National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE) as the percent ofgraduates for which UW-Eau Claire has reasonable and verifiable information concerning the graduates’ postgraduation career activities. The knowledge rate refers to basic information about the career outcomes.Majors without any respondents are not listed in the report. Students with multiple majors are counted ineach major. Percentages may not sum to 100 due to rounding. Graduate students and International Studentsare not included in the survey results.𝑇𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙 % 𝐸𝑚𝑝𝑙𝑜𝑦𝑒𝑑 𝑜𝑟 𝐶𝑜𝑛𝑡𝑖𝑛𝑢𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝐸𝑑𝑢𝑐𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 𝑇𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙 𝐶𝑜𝑛𝑡𝑖𝑛𝑢𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝐸𝑑𝑢𝑐𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 𝑇𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙 �� 𝐺𝑟𝑎𝑑𝑢𝑎𝑡𝑒𝑠 𝑊ℎ𝑜 𝑅𝑒𝑠𝑝𝑜𝑛𝑑𝑒𝑑 𝑤𝑖𝑡ℎ 𝐼𝑛𝑓𝑜𝑟𝑚𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑤𝑒𝑟𝑒 𝑎𝑣𝑎𝑖𝑙𝑎𝑏𝑙𝑒*Includes only Annual Salary responses.3UW-Eau Claire’s First Destination ReportGraduates from 2017-18
