title: [Profile of baccalaureate curriculum graduate students in 1997].
abstract: The purpose of this study is to describe the profile of the B.Cur. graduates who completed their studies in 1997 at the Rand Afrikaans University. Theoretical points of departures were used, such as Muller's career management description (Muller, 1998: 353-362) and Northeastern University's five-step model career services (Northeastern University, sa:1). After taking all the factors into consideration that play a role in career management, the researcher will be able to compile a complete profile of the B.Cur. graduates of 1997. It is important to the nursing education institution to know the profile of the graduates, in order to adapt the programme to the needs of the students. With a quantitative survey design, data was gathered telephonically, through a self-composed questionnaire. The structured questionnaire has content validity in terms of conceptualization. Of the thirty-one students, data was gathered on twenty-nine of them. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze the data. The profile of the graduates is described according to fourteen factors from the questionnaire.
