Survey of 1999 Maritime University Graduates in 2001This report presents findings of a survey of 1999 graduates from universities in the Maritime Provinces. The main objective of the survey was to discover the nature of the transition that the graduates have experienced between the learning force and the work force, and back again, taking into consideration their experience prior to enrollment in the program that they graduated from in 1999. The survey examines several important elements: labour force activities; progress in repaying debt incurred to finance pre- & post-1999 studies; current overall financial status, including earnings, overall debt load from the graduates' studies, and the impact of debt on their personal lives; post-1999 educational experiences; mobility; evaluation of graduates' pre-1999 university experience; and outlook on graduates' personal lives. |
