Overview

Controlled trial demonstrates improved career decision-making readiness in undergraduate students, indicating the value of structured career development courses.

Key Points

  • To evaluate whether a structured 15-week career development course enhances career decision-making readiness among undergraduate university students.
  • Conducted a controlled interventional study involving 104 undergraduate students (mean age 21 years) from humanities and STEM disciplines.
  • Assigned participants equally into an experimental group (n=52) that attended a 15-week career development course and an untreated control group (n=52).
  • Assessed decision-making readiness before and after the intervention using the Career Decision-making Difficulties Questionnaire (CDMDQ).
  • The experimental group showed statistically significant pre- to post-course improvements across all three CDMDQ clusters compared to the control group.
  • Intervention participants demonstrated qualitative reductions in difficulties related to Lack of Readiness, Lack of Information, and Inconsistent Information.
