Graduate Outcomes in an annual survey that gathers insight into the status of graduates 15 months after finishing their studies.
It's delivered by the Higher Education Statistics Agency (HESA), and includes graduates from around 450 higher education institutions, one of which is Abertay University.
As well as capturing general information about employment / further study status, the survey asks participants to reflect on how their education and education provider have directly contributed to where they are now.
Outcomes from the survey have the potential to impact current and future Abertay students directly.
Beneficially, it provides key information on the graduate labour market for each subject area, as well as highlighting further study opportunities that our students may have not considered.听听听
The survey results also help us evaluate our courses and student support services, identifying areas to enhance and improve based on real evidence.
This survey helps charities, researchers, journalists and the government shape policy and make decisions in light of the responses. It helps them to gain a better understanding of the national higher education sector, as well as the graduate labour market, which can change year on year.听
