UNAM Graduates

Graduates Survey 2012 - 2013

Dear Graduates

Prof. Lazarus Hangula

 

Recently, you have received an invitation letter to participate in the NAMTRACE (survey of graduates) who completed their studies in the year 2012 - 2013. Here you will find further information about the survey and access to the online questionnaire. You should use your student number to access the questionnaire.

Your information will be treated with strict confidentiality. The results will be published in such a way that identification of individual persons is excluded. Results of this survey will be published in March 2017 on the website of the University of Namibia. On your request, we will send you a printed version of the report with the main results of the survey.

We depend on a high response rate in order to continue to obtain reliable results and thereby improve the quality of the degree programmes and conditions of study we offer, so please give us your support. This year, we are inviting all Bachelor and Honours graduates who completed their degrees in 2012 - 2013 at the University of Namibia, to participate.

Thank you in advance for your cooperation.

kind regards,

Prof. Lazarus Hangula
Vice Chancellor: University of Namibia

What are Tracer Studies?

Tracer studies or Graduate Surveys describe a standard survey (in written form) of graduates from higher education institutions, which take place some time after graduation, usually two years. They are a means of following graduates to find out what they are doing with the education and training they received. Common topics covered in tracer studies include questions on study progress, the transition to work, work entrance, job career, use of learned competencies and current occupation.

A Quality Assurance Tool

One of the requirements for quality management in higher education is the consideration of different perspectives when trying to assure quality of teaching and learning. In this context, tracer studies represent an inclusive tool for incorporating graduates points of view .

Why are Tracer Studies important?

Tracer studies are important for the following reasons:

  • To find out what happened to graduates after they completed their studies;
  • To find out if they are employed, self-employed or whether they are still looking for a job;
  • To find out if their studies prepare them well for the workplace;
  • To find out if graduates use the knowledge and skills they have learned during their studies; and
  • To use graduates feedback to improve the quality of the study programmes and more specific, to revise the curricular, if necessary.

The tracer studies conducted by the higher education institutions (UNAM, Polytech and IUM) form part of a national collaborative project, NAMTRACE (Namibia Tracer Studies), initiated by the National Council for Higher Education (NCHE).

How will the findings of this study be used?

The findings are used in different areas of higher education development, as well as to improve services provided by the higher education institutions.
