GRADUATE EMPLOYMENT SURVEY 2009

Ms Sylvia Lim asked the Minister for Education what were the sample sizes, broken down by university and degree, which formed the basis of the 2009 Graduate Employment Survey published by the Ministry on the employment status of graduates from the three public universities.
Dr Ng Eng Hen: A total of about 11,000 graduates were surveyed, and the number of graduates by course/university surveyed is proportionate to enrolment. Of the 11,000 surveyed, about 8,500 responses were valid and reported on; thus, the overall response rate was 77%. For results to be reported, the sample size for each degree from each university should meet two criteria – a minimum of 70% of those surveyed and a minimum of 20 completed or useable responses.
