RE: Graduate Follow-up Survey

The Department of Mathematics and Computer Science at South Carolina State University is conducting a follow-up study of computer science graduates. As mandated by our accrediting bodies, all programs in our department must be assessed annually. As a graduate of our computer science program, your input and assistance is very important and will be a great asset in the assessment of our program. The information you provide will be collectively analyzed and used strictly as feedback to strengthen our program. Your input will further assist us with curricula modifications, needed/recommended changes in our program, and preparation of self-study reports for various accrediting agencies. Please complete the attached ‘Graduate Follow-up Survey’. Your response is needed immediately.

Please complete this survey online and feel free to contact me if you have any questions. Thanks for your time, cooperation, and continued support.
