| Abstract | This followup study was conducted to determine the need for and relevance of associate degree industrial programs at Pennsylvania State University. More specifically, the study sought to determine the relationships between geographic and job mobility characteristics of associate degree graduates since their graduation. Responses from questionnaires sent to 1,748 associate degree graduates in one of the following programs provided the data: (1) Drafting Design Technology, (2) Electrical and Electronics Technology, (3) Business Administration, (4) Forestry Technology, (5) Retailing, and (6) Surveying Technology. Findings included these facts: (1) Sixty-four percent of the graduates lived within 50 miles of their hometown high schools, (2) On their most recent job 54.2 percent lived within 50 miles of their hometown high school, (3) Some of the individuals moved closer to their hometown high schools later in their careers, (4) The greatest movement in miles between first and present job was found in the less than 50 miles and greater than 1,000 mile distributions, (5) More than 40 percent were still on their first job, and (6) Two-thirds of the graduates were living in the state of Pennsylvania at the time the study was conducted.
