INTRODUCTION This annual survey is conducted for the purpose of facilitating the career decisions of currently enrolled and prospective students. The survey is done in compliance with the Title IV Higher Education Reauthorization Amendments of 1986 (Sections 485 and 486). It is also completed as part of our continued effort to increase and expand our institutional effectiveness. The Graduate Survey has four parts: (1) Survey highlights and summary, (2) Statistical details by degree area: Bachelor's, Associate's, Certificate's and Master's, (3) Companies that hired Montana Tech graduates, and (4) Colleges and Universities where Montana Tech graduates have continued their education. The portion of the summaries which deal with placement status accounts for all degree and certificate recipients, including U.S. and Canadian Citizens and International graduates, are divided into the following six categories: 1) DEGREE-RELATED EMPLOYMENT 2) PROFESSIONAL EMPLOYMENT (Positions requiring college degree) 3) EMPLOYMENT OUTSIDE OF DEGREE AREA 4) CONTINUING EDUCATION 5) MILITARY 6) NOT CURRENTLY SEEKING EMPLOYMENT Placement data are based on responses received from the graduates who participated in the Montana Tech 2012 Graduate Survey. Class of 2012 includes Summer 2011, Fall 2011 and Spring 2012 graduates. A small portion of the survey was provided by secondary sources. A conscientious effort has been made to ensure the accuracy of the career information included in this report. Because of the cyclical nature of the businesses and industries for which Montana Tech trains its students, placement statistics from any one year should not be viewed as representative long-term permanent results. The annual graduate survey should, instead, be viewed only as an informational resource in the career-planning process.

This survey is available online at:

www.mtech.edu/career/surveys

Special Note:

Specific information on each of the different colleges can be found online at: www.mtech.edu/academics

Insufficient Data (I/D): To keep salary information confidential, I/D is listed when less than four salaries are reported.
