ASSESSMENT PLAN
A survey of 1 year, 5 year and 10 year graduates of the program was conducted last year. Questions relating to the adequacy of the academic preparation for careers were included. The survey will be revised annually by chair.
1999-2000 ASSESSMENT
An Alumni Survey was not conducted this year. The department is working with the Dean's Office and Alumni Office to compile an accurate list of our graduates and their employers to be used in the next Alumni Survey.
1998-99 ASSESSMENT
As the Center for Rural Research and Development, Career Services, and Computer Services offer several "mini" courses, the department decided not to offer "mini" courses. One faculty did organize and present a series of five 2-hour sessions on investing.
1997-98 ASSESSMENT
The results of the 1996-97 Alumni Survey conducted of 1, 5, and 10-year business administration alumni revealed that the majority of our graduates felt they were well prepared for their careers. Some did suggest that the department offer "mini" courses (such as 1/2 day) on different topics to bring them up to date in areas such as technology, Internet, etc.
1996-97 ASSESSMENT
An Alumni Survey was conducted this year of 1, 5, and 10 year business administration alumni. The results of the survey have not yet been compiled.
1995-96 ASSESSMENT
A survey of 1, 5, and 10-year business administration alumni was not conducted this year. Based on the information from the 1993-94 survey, more technology is being incorporated into our classes.
1994-95 ASSESSMENT
From the Alumni Survey conducted during the 1993-94 academic year, the majority of our graduates felt they were well prepared for their careers. Some did suggest that technology be integrated into more of the classes. The suggestions for improvements/changes are being considered by each business administration area as they review the curriculum. A survey of 1, 5, and 10-year alumni was not conducted this year.
1993-94 ASSESSMENT
The Alumni Survey conducted during the 1993-94 academic year found that a large majority of UNK Business Administration graduates felt that they were well prepared for their careers. They liked the preparation for their careers that they received in their small classes taught by faculty with a strong interest in teaching. Classes, particularly at the senior level, remain small.

Specifics of the information gathered from the survey is currently being utilized in the study of curriculum revision.

The survey is in the process of revision, and will be conducted again during the 1994-95 academic year, again surveying 1, 5, and 10 year graduates.
