Institutional Surveys
Institutional Research and Effectiveness regularly coordinates and conducts annual surveys of students and alumni, while also providing support and guidance for other survey research conducted by our faculty and staff. While the college periodically participates in outside surveys offered through other organizations, the IRE office annually distributes two internal surveys, the student experience survey and the five-year-out survey of alumni. Below are brief descriptions of what these surveys collect and links to summary reports.
The Student Experience Survey
|
What is it? Based on research done by Gallup and Purdue University, CC's Student Experience Survey examines 10 areas of the Colorado College experience which the college has determined may influence the future success of our alumni. |
|
What data does it include? The survey frames these ten areas into ten questions which measure how students use opportunities at the college, and provides insight into how those experiences may influence the future success of our alumni. |
Postgraduate Pursuits
|
What is it? The Postgraduate Pursuits page contains profiles on CC's graduating classes, a five-years out as well as a request link for additional or more detailed information on a class. |
|
What data does it include? Class profiles contain summary information on graduates' academic, career, and volunteer pursuits, five years post-graduation. Academic information includes fields and levels of degrees pursued, and most popular institutions. Career information includes most common fields pursued and median salary ranges. |
