A Case Study of the School of Pre-School Education, MSUE (2021-2025)

Abstract

Graduate satisfaction serves as a critical indicator for quality assurance in evaluating the effectiveness and impact of higher education institutions. This study aimed to determine the satisfaction levels of graduates from the School of Pre-School Education (SPSE) at the Mongolian State University of Education (MSUE) between 2021 and 2025 and to analyze the basis for enhancing program quality. A mixed-methods research design was employed, involving 356 graduates selected through random sampling. Data were collected via Google Forms and processed using SPSS software.
 The findings indicate that while 85.9% of graduates are satisfied with their profession, a significant 89.9% perceive the social status and valuation of the teaching profession as inadequate (average or poor). High satisfaction rates (79-83%) were observed regarding curriculum quality, practical relevance, and faculty expertise. However, the study highlighted a pressing need to improve technological infrastructure, feedback mechanisms for student voices, and the implementation of policies supporting students with special needs.
 The results of this study hold strategic importance for evidence-based curriculum reform and the preparation of high-quality human resources aligned with labor market demands, in accordance with the "General Law on Education" and the "Vision 2050" policy framework.
