Abstract: This report provides a descriptive overview of the Iowa State University Alumni Survey. In late 2007, 25,000 Iowa State University alumni who received bachelor's degree between 1982 and 2006 were surveyed to obtain information on their career paths, employment status, further education, entrepreneurial activities, community engagement and current income. The on-line and written survey resulted in approximately 5,500 valid returns.

Keywords: human capital; career path; bachelor's degree recipients; land-grant university; entrepreneurship; personal income; community engagement. (search for similar items in EconPapers)
