  • Employer Surveys - 2016
    EMPLOYER SURVEYS - 2016 Introduction Every three years, UVU conducts two employer surveys: one survey specifically of employers of recent UVU graduates, the other survey more generally of employers across the state. Institutional Research & Information conducted the most recent iterations of these surveys in 2016. This report summarizes our findings, including significant differences from the last time we conducted these surveys in 2013. We spoke with 277 employers of UVU graduates and 351 general employers. Key Findings 61% of employers view UVU’s quality of education as either Very Good or Good and 82% are either Very Likely or Likely to hire a UVU graduate. UVU is tied as the fourth best university in Utah in terms of quality of education. On-Campus recruiting has increased by 10% since 2013. Employers of UVU graduates were asked to rate their graduate’s skill and knowledge in certain areas of their work and how important those skills are to that job. The categories rated highest in importance also had the highest skill and knowledge. The majority of employers rated their satisfaction with UVU graduate’s work habits as very satisfied or satisfied. EMPLOYER SURVEYS - 2016 Overall Quality The majority of respondents claim that they are either very likely or likely to hire UVU graduates (82%). Most employers in Utah give an assessment of UVU’s quality of education as either very good or good (61%). The remaining respondents either rated UVU’s quality of education as satisfactory (5%) or claimed they didn’t know (35%). UVU Compared to Other Schools On average, employers ranked UVU’s quality of education as lower than U of U, BYU and USU.
