1998 Graduating Senior Survey: Knowledge, Skills, and Personal Development
Graduating Seniors were asked to rate the extent to which NC State had contributed to their knowledge, skills, and personal development in terms of four areas: technical skills, attitudes and values, established goals for undergraduate education, and personal development. To measure impact in these areas, a four-point scale was used (1=not at all, 2=very little, 3=somewhat, 4=very much). A "don’t know" response was also provided.Contribution to Technical Skills
