Economics Staff Paper Series
In 1989, the Economics Department conducted a survey of its alumni. Questionnaires were sent to a random sample of 750 alumni who graduated between the years of 1978 and 1988. The response rate was 44% (329 responses). The objective of the survey was to provide the SDSU Economics Department with information on how well the curriculum had prepared graduates for their careers and subsequent employment experiences. The survey information will be used to modify the curriculum, as needed, to improve the quality of education and career preparation for students graduating with majors from the Economics Department.
