Employment rates are excellent.
Baccalaureate students' level of satisfaction was below the university norm. Of four cohorts, two were above this standard. In comparing GMU graduates with graduates of other programs, employers indicated that GMU graduates were comparable to or somewhat better prepared than their competition. Results for two cohorts of students taking the California Critical Thinking Test show that 1995 graduates were slightly above the norm while 1996 graduates were slightly below the norm. Students in fall 1995 and spring 1996 performed on average, above the norm established for the Individual Student Evaluation for NURS 465 Class Presentation and for the Guidelines for the Development and Evaluation of Issues Paper for NURS 465.
