26、andemic lockdowns and labour shortagesThis edition of What do graduates do?is a particularly significant one in our goal of understanding the nature and shape of the UK graduate labour market.It covers graduates who left university in the 2019/20 academic year,and who were surveyed using HESAs Gradu

27、ate Outcomes survey in 2021,so 15 months after graduation.These dates are highly important.Graduates in this edition left university during the COVID-19 pandemic,and during the summer significant restrictions were in place throughout the country and with specific extra restrictions in certain parts

28、of the country,such as Scotland and parts of the North and Midlands of England.1At this point,the labour market was very difficult.On 8 July 2020,the government released its Plan for Jobs.2 Crucial measures included:a one-off payment of 1,000 to UK employers for every furloughed employee earning abo

29、ve 520 per month who remained continuously employed through to the end of January 2021 a new Kickstart Scheme,to create six-month work placements aimed at those aged 16-24 on Universal Credit and deemed to be at risk of long-term unemployment an additional 32million funding over the next two years f

30、or the National Careers Service 2,000 to employers in England for each new apprentice they hired aged under age 25,and a 1,500 payment for each new apprentice they hired aged 25 and over.This demonstrates the severity of the issues in the labour market.By the end of June 2020,nearly half a million p

31、eople had lost their jobs,and the number of people in the workforce continued to fall throughout 2020.3 Job vacancies,meanwhile,reached bottom in June 2020 with vacancies running at around 39%of pre-pandemic levels.4 However,there were already signs that the graduate labour market might escape the w

32、orst of the effects.5By the time that these graduates were surveyed,it had become clear that the labour market in general,and the graduate labour market in particular,had outperformed not merely the worst predictions,but also most of the more optimistic ones.The large majority of restrictions had be

33、en removed some time previously,job vacancy levels returned to pre-pandemic levels in May 2021,and had been comfortably outperforming that level ever since.By December 2021,vacancies were 20 to 30%above pre-pandemic levels,all graduate recruitment sectors(with the exception of energy and law)had vac

34、ancies above pre-pandemic levels and had had them for some time,and the narrative switched from job losses to occupational shortages and recruitment difficulties.6This is the unique context into which this cohort graduated.Having entered some of the most difficult labour market conditions for new gr

35、aduates in living memory,the market improved rapidly and vigorously and so outcomes for this cohort after 15 months were slightly better than their peers from the previous year,who had graduated into a relatively normal labour market but who were surveyed during severe pandemic restrictions.As many

36、as 80%of the cohort were employed either full time(with or without further study),or part time,with a small number working unpaid or on a voluntary basis.One fifth were in further study,either solely or alongside work,and Masters qualifications remained the most common qualification for this group.J

37、ust 5.8%were unemployed at the time of the survey,but 28%had a job or,less commonly,a course of study,lined up to go to and so only 4.2%of the cohort were unemployed and did not have something to go to within a month.This is not dissimilar to the figures we might expect for a normal year and demonst

38、rates the employability,resilience and adaptability of UK graduates,and how rapidly the graduate labour market had rebounded from COVID.Of those who were working,67%were in permanent,full-time roles and another 15%were on fixed term contracts-note that the latter is very common among professionals o

39、n qualifying years,such as junior doctors,and should not be seen as necessarily a sign of insecure employment.Self-employment had been hit particularly hard by the pandemic,but around 8%of the employed cohort were either self-employed or actively working towards self-employment,and this will be moni

40、tored over time to see if COVID has had any long-term effect on the self-employed graduate community.Graduate labour market overviewEven in a pandemic the large majority of new graduates got good jobs.There is no reason to believe that the coming period of economic difficulty will disrupt that.2What

41、 do graduates do?2023Location of employment and hybrid workingArguably one of the most significant long-term effects of the COVID pandemic has been the rapid adoption of hybrid working.By Spring 2022,around 38%of working adults reported working from home for some time during the previous week7,but i

42、t was also clear from the data that hybrid working was much more common among high earners,the more qualified and particularly in sectors such as IT and business services.In short,hybrid working is much more common among graduates than non-graduates and it has become the norm for many graduate emplo

43、yees.At present,this tendency is not very clear in the data for new qualifiers.The data on location of employment is not very dissimilar to pre-pandemic figures.London is the most important location but the large majority of graduates do not,and never will,work in the capital-and most of those who d

44、o already hail from the city and its neighbouring regions.But in future,the Graduate Outcomes survey aims to capture not merely where work is based but also where workers tend to work from,and we will be able to examine this topic in much more detail.Types of workThis cohort of graduates were more l

45、ikely to be in professional-level employment than their peers a year previously.As many as 74%of working graduates were in professional-level employment after 15 months.The occupations that saw the greatest increases in employment between the two years were:other nursing professionals,a group includ

46、ing non-hospital nurses,up 860 marketing professions,up 720 graphic designers,an occupation that had been hit hard by the pandemic but recovered very rapidly,up 445 laboratory technicians,an occupation with particular recruitment and retention issues,up 440 teaching professionals not elsewhere class

47、ified,(a group including peripatetic teachers of subjects like languages,drama or music),up 430.All of these roles are considered to be at professional level.The largest fallers were retail assistants(down 535),basic customer service workers(down 455),care home workers,an occupation that saw a large

48、 rise during the pandemic(down 410),bank clerks,down 280,and waiters and waitresses,down 240.None of these roles are considered to be professional-level jobs.Looking forward,the economic signals are not good.Inflation has increased rapidly and to levels not seen for many years,and the expectation is

49、 that it will rise significantly further.Energy bills have skyrocketed.The country looks set to enter a very difficult period,but the labour market,particularly for graduates,remains very strong at the time of writing,and it looks as if we head into these much choppier waters with a labour shortage.

50、This is quite unusual in itself and makes prediction even more difficult than usual.But,even in a pandemic that locked down the UK economy,the large majority of new graduates got good jobs.There is no reason to believe that the coming period of economic difficulty,no matter how severe,will disrupt t

51、hat.The last few years have been tremendously challenging for graduates and those who support them,but the quality,resilience and adaptability of our graduates has helped them meet challenges in the past,and we can help them meet those that are on their way.Graduate labour market overview5 data poin

52、ts you may have missed Four fifths(79%)of first-degree graduates with disabilities found full or part-time employment 15 months after graduation with the majority(71%)working in professional-level jobs.In addition,63%of those in employment said they are utilising the skills they learnt during their

53、studies.95%of 2019/20 first degree graduates who had done an apprenticeship were in professional-level employment 15 months after graduation,with 42%working as engineering and IT professionals.UK graduates from low participation neighbourhoods were just as likely to be in full-time employment 15 mon

73、aduates do?2023EXPERT INSIGHTSThe measures by which the relative success(or failure)of our universities are judged is the subject of increasing political scrutiny.Many across the sector lament the binary interpretations of relative success as crude measures of the value of higher education.Measures

74、such as graduate salary and the labelling of occupations as professional-level pay little attention to the individual that sits behind those metrics,nor the context or their motivations for university study,which are often very personal and subjective.Furthermore,defining the value of a degree by it

75、s relative monetary return to the Treasury pays little regard to a system in which jobs that require a degree can sometimes lead to careers with relatively modest remuneration(and this is before we even contemplate the differentiated graduate labour market and regional variations of salary).To defin

76、e value by salary fundamentally detracts from the social and cultural value of such pursuits.With this in mind,it has never been more important to develop a deeper understanding of graduates individual perceptions.Understanding the graduate voice is critical to inform the development of the support

77、services universities provide,such as bespoke and differentiated careers and employability education,as well as providing a contextual narrative to influence and stimulate agency within institutions,and to counter the implicit assumptions of value enforced by our metricised system.To date,although s

78、ome league table providers have started to experiment with the use of graduate voice data in their metrics,the dataset is still relatively underutilised and there are no immediate plans for it to be drawn upon in the regulation of student outcomes(in England).1 Nonetheless,analysis of the 2019/20 da

79、ta still provides a useful insight into the graduate perspective,which can either challenge or re-enforce our perceptions of the graduate labour market.The Graduate Outcomes survey asks graduates to reflect on their activity to date and covers three key aspects:The extent to which graduates feel the

80、y are utilising what they learnt during their studies in their current activity.The extent to which graduates perceive their current activity as meaningful.The extent to which graduates feel their current activity fits with their future plans(on track).Untapped potential:graduate voice and the value

81、 of HEMark Stow,director of business engagement,careers&employability at Leeds Beckett University,and Gemma Green,head of external relations at AGCAS,emphasise the importance of listening to graduate voices when determining the value of higher education8What do graduates do?2023EXPERT INSIGHTSPositi

82、ve representationAcross the three datasets,we see a relatively positive representation of the graduate voice and the perceived value that they place on their university education.61%agree or strongly agree that they are utilising what they learnt during their studies,while 82%agree or strongly agree

83、 that the activity they are engaged in is meaningful,and 72%agree or strongly agree that their current activity is on track.As such,the data demonstrates that graduates acknowledge the impact of their university education upon their current activity,that this activity is of subjective value to them,

84、and that their activity is presenting positive prospects to help them achieve their future plans.These insights alone move us beyond the binary definition of value.Subject variationAcross all three of the metrics there is,inevitably,subject variation in the responses.Perhaps unsurprisingly,there is

85、also a clear split across those disciplines which arguably have a more vocationally-focused pathway.This trend is more overt in graduates utilising what they learnt during their studies(ranging from 50%in Politics up to 76%in Education)and with the on track data(ranging from 62%in Art up to 83%in Ci

86、vil Engineering).Interestingly,the distinction between vocationally-focused disciplines and other disciplines is less evident in graduates perceptions of how meaningful their activity is.This suggests a more consistent sense of value in the activities that graduates are undertaking across all discip

87、lines(the lowest positive response was in Cinematics and Photography at 73%).Variation by student characteristicsExploring the data by student characteristics(BAME,polar quintiles,and disability)reflects a similar picture to what we often see in institutional Access and Participation Plans(APPs),wit

88、h a negative percentage gap across all the student characteristic groups.The largest gaps are for Black and minority ethnic graduates perceptions of their current activity being on track when compared to their white peers(-3.6%)and for graduates who have declared a disability when compared to those

89、without a disability(-3.2%).Interestingly,the negative trends are reversed or reduced when we explore polar quintiles,with a positive gap(+0.7%)identified in utilising what they learnt during their studies for graduates from low participation neighbourhoods compared to their peers from areas with a

90、higher propensity to attend HE.We also see a less pronounced gap(-0.8%),when we consider the extent to which graduates perceive their current activity as being meaningful.This perhaps reflects the difference between expectation and reality,and the value some students from low participation neighbour

91、hoods place on their activities and opportunities for progression within the context of their background.Future commitment The context which the graduate voice data can add to the traditional analysis of graduate destinations has the potential to be incredibly powerful.A valued ex-colleague once ref

92、lected that our current system of capturing the value of universities increasingly means that we are managed by proxies for which there is no consensus,so if you want to know how our graduates are really doing why not just ask?2 The graduate voice dataset goes some way to enabling us to do so,and it

93、 is perhaps up to the sector to commit to using it more to effectively challenge and influence the ongoing political and divisive narrative of value.Untapped potential:graduate voice and the value of HEUnderstanding the graduate voice is critical to inform the development of the support services uni

94、versities provide,such as bespoke and differentiated careers and employability education.9What do graduates do?2023EXPERT INSIGHTSWe know that there is an employment outcomes gap between UK-domiciled white students and students from different ethnic backgrounds-it has been a talking point in recent

95、years and the gap was highlighted in the 2021 edition of What do graduates do?The situation has to have improved since then,right?Sadly,the most recent Graduate Outcomes data indicates that things are not getting better.Ethnicity mattersBAME(Black,Asian and minority ethnic)is divisive as a catch-all

96、 term.Frequently used to group all ethnic minorities together,it disguises huge differences in outcomes between them.For example,if we look at the 2019/20 Graduate Outcomes data we can see that 59.3%of white graduates were in full-time employment 15 months after graduation compared with 51.3%of BAME

97、 graduates.This gap of eight percentage points is problematic in itself,but if we look even more closely at the data we can see,for example,that the gap is even wider for Asian or Asian British-Pakistani graduates with a difference in outcomes of 11.2 percentage points.By grouping all non-white grad

98、uates into a box we are missing key nuances in the data that can,and should,be used to further inform decision-making and policymaking addressing graduate outcome inequalities.Pandemic impact Unsurprisingly,COVID-19 has impacted graduate outcomes across the board with a reduction in full-time employ

99、ment outcomes across all ethnic groups.For those students who graduated in 2018/19 this was down from 60.2%to 55.7%.Although the data has improved for the graduating class of 2019/20(with an increase to 57.4%)we are still not back to pre-pandemic levels and some groups have been more heavily impacte

100、d than others.Chinese graduates are now the group with the highest unemployment rate(11.6%).The percentage of Chinese graduates in full-time employment has reduced by 5.9 percentage points between 2017/18 and 2019/20 compared with the average reduction across all ethnicities of 2.8 percentage points

101、.Intersectionality Everyone has their own unique experiences of discrimination and oppression.We must recognise all aspects that can be used to marginalise people,such as gender,race,class,sexual orientation,physical ability etc.Acknowledging the importance of intersectionality means that tackling t

102、he graduate outcomes gap for ethnic minority students alone is not an equitable approach.All forms of inequality surfaced in the data must be analysed and addressed simultaneously to prevent the rights,interests and voices of minorities from being overlooked.For example,2019/20 data demonstrates tha

103、t 75.2%of employed white male graduates are in professional-level jobs compared to 61.3%of female Asian-Bangladeshi graduates.This gap of 14 percentage points will not be closed by addressing ethnicity in isolation.Data should be viewed holistically,acknowledging and addressing the inequality of opp

104、ortunity from different perspectives.What next?Universities and employers have taken steps to address inequalities in graduate outcomes over the past few years.Schemes such as the 10,000 Black Interns programme and various targeted diversity internships are all positive steps towards tackling the gr

105、aduate outcomes gap.Due to the lag between graduation and Graduate Outcomes data collection we wont know the full impact of these interventions for quite some time.While there has been a flurry of remedial action in this area in the last few years,there is still a lot more to be done,particularly fr

106、om moving from a piecemeal approach to one that is strategically embedded in,part of and informs organisational strategy and policy;fully resourced,monitored,and championed by employers,universities,and employability services.There needs to be more collaboration,sharing of data and impact,and applic

110、ERT INSIGHTSThe Graduate Outcomes survey provides insight into the activities of graduates once they gain their qualification and make their next step.By its nature,it is a glimpse into the,albeit recent,past.Even without the turbulence of the past two years,the world of work was changing,with digit

111、isation,globalisation and social factors already changing the ways we work and think about work.How,if at all,can the graduate outcomes of the past help us support the graduates of the future?The big pictureThere are some differences in the employment outcomes of 2018/19 graduates,who were surveyed

112、during the early pandemic,and 2019/20 graduates.The proportion of 2019/20 graduates in full-time employment has increased by five percentage points in comparison to 2018/19(57.3%,compared to 52.3%).There is little difference in the part-time employment rates for 2019/20(11.4%)graduates and the 2018/

113、19 cohort(12.4%).Across all subject areas,2019/20 graduates in employment were most likely to be employed in high-skilled roles(74%),with over half employed in professional occupations(49%)and fewer in associate professional occupations(22%)and employed as managers,directors and senior officials(3%)

114、.However,graduates are also employed in jobs that are not classed as high skilled,including administrative and secretarial jobs(7%),caring,leisure,and other service occupations(6%)and sales and customer service occupations(5%).Research by the Skills and Employability Board in 2022 predicts that in t

115、he next five to ten years,there will increasing demand in England for managers,directors,and senior officials and for workers in professional occupations,associate professional and technical occupations,and caring,leisure,and other service occupations.1 This is pretty good news for graduates and edu

116、cation providers,and we might reasonably predict that graduate employment in high-skilled roles will increase accordingly.Being their own bossOne advantage of the survey is that it gives us some understanding of other types of work graduates undertake that isnt on behalf of an employer.Nestas For Lo

117、ve or Money?report(2020)while creative arts graduates are more likely than others to be in part-time employment,their work is often related to their degree than other disciplines.1 While they make up only 17%of the graduate population,they represent 46%of graduates working in the creative industries

118、.This demonstrates firstly,why it is so important that definitions of a good graduate job capture those that the graduate finds meaningful,relates to their chosen field or uses skills that theyve learned during their degree;and secondly,that over half of the graduates working in these industries are

119、 not from a creative arts background.At the time of survey,3%graduates were self-employed/freelancing,1.4%were running their own business and 2.2%were developing a creative,artistic or professional portfolio.Two fifths of graduates running their own business saw it as their most important activity(4

120、0.7%)and 42.8%of graduates self-employed or freelancing reported it as their most important activity.The number of businesses started by recent graduates(within two years)with formal support from a UK HE provider has increased year-on-year since 2014,with 15,793 graduate start-ups active in 2020/21,

121、employing 46,723 FTE employees and producing an estimated turnover of 3,361,635.2 A total of 4,528 graduate start-ups with formal business/enterprise support from the HE provider were launched in 2020/21,the highest number since data collection began in 2014/15.This reflects the start-up market acro

122、ss the UK,with a record 772,002 new businesses started in 2020,an increase of 13.25%since 2019.3 The UK is ahead of India and China when it comes to start-up funding,with a record-breaking 29.4bn invested in UK start-ups in 2021 and an even greater figure predicted for 2022.4 Research by the Global

123、Entrepreneurs Centre found that nearly 13%of UK adults in 2022 are in the first three months of starting a new business or are already running a young enterprise,compared to 8%in 2020.5 Clearly,the UKs entrepreneurship bubble is booming,and graduates from all disciplines can become creators of their

124、 own businesses or intrapreneurs within established ones.The role of careers and employability professionals in supporting graduates who aspire to entrepreneurship is recognised by UKRI,with examples of Higher Education Innovation Funding(HEIF)being used to support enterprise labs,internships and de

125、velopment programmes for students from any discipline,as well as more traditional graduate start-up services.6 Graduate Outcomes and the future world of workGabi Binnie,head of funded projects at Gradconsult,explores how the snapshot of the past provided by Graduate Outcomes data can inform the supp

126、ort required by the students and graduates of the futureWhat we can say with some certainty is that undertaking a university degree undoubtably helps graduates develop essential skills that will equip them for success in the future.11What do graduates do?2023EXPERT INSIGHTSSkills for the futureIn th

127、eir research for the Department for Education,the Skills and Employability Board identify four categories of skills that they predict will become increasingly important in the labour market of the future:STEM knowledge,including specialist skills such as medicine and dentistry,therapy and counsellin

128、g,and psychology.Skills related to educating and training others,as well as being an active learner.People skills,including negotiation,persuasion,and resolving conflicts.Application of knowledge skills including critical and creative thinking,complex problem solving,and decision-making.Theres some

129、clear commonality between the skills predicted to increase in demand and the skills already required of graduate recruits by employers,7 but theres a gap for a fifth category-skills that will set graduates up for success in the continuously evolving labour market.The World Economic Forum identifies

130、analytical thinking and innovation,technology use and design and resilience,stress tolerance and flexibility amongst their top ten skills for 2025,while other analysts suggest grit,perseverance,driving change and innovation,and emotional control as critical for the future of work.8 The last two year

131、s have shown that attempting to predict the future is a risky business.What we can say with some certainty is that undertaking a university degree undoubtably helps graduates develop essential skills that will equip them for success in the future.The challenge often lies in students recognition and

132、articulation of their skills,which is where extracting and surfacing the employability value of degrees,authentic assessments that mirror the working world and opportunities for interaction with employers(either extracurricular work experience or embedded in the curriculum),can help.But theres anoth

133、er approach too.Experiential learning programmes can be a scalable and quick alternative to adding new content to the curriculum.These opportunities which I like to think of psychological incubators can provide students with the chance to try something new for the first time in conditions that mimic

135、hey need to thrive in the fast-changing future world of work.Graduate Outcomes and the future world of work12What do graduates do?2023EXPERT INSIGHTSWhen working in higher education we often find ourselves discussing myths and untruths about the sector.This covers a range of things such as the linea

136、rity(or rather not)of graduate career paths,national employment trends,and various other elements of the student experience.Its doubtful that higher education is alone in this regard,and in any industry there are probably things that outside lookers-in think are true when the reality is quite the op

137、posite.This article focuses on one of the myths often encountered which is with regards to graduate migration.There are four ways to think about graduate migration,coined by Charlie Ball nearly a decade ago,and they serve as a useful way to categorise this movement of thousands of people every year.

138、Loyals-studied and now live and work in their home region.Returners-studied in another region,but now live and work in their home one.Stayers-studied in another region and stayed there to live and work.Incomers-studied in one region,and left to live and work in another that isnt their home one.The D

139、ick Whittington fallacy is one of the myths often encountered,in that people assume that most graduates want to and do move to London.Looking at those four categories and UK undergraduates from the 2019/20 Graduate Outcomes survey data,Loyals account for 42%,Returners 26%,Stayers 11%and Incomers 21%

140、.Another way to view this is that two-thirds(68%)of graduates are based in their home region 15 months after graduating.Various factors will influence this,such as family and relationship ties,caring responsibilities,job opportunities and desires,and regional cost of living variations.Across the UK

141、there are significant variations in the percentage of graduates living in their home region after graduation(Loyals plus Returners).Its highest for the home nations outside of England,that is,Northern Ireland(96%),Scotland(88%)and Wales(76%).In England there is broad range,with the West Midlands(75%

142、)and North East(74%)at the top end,and London(52%)at the other.Even though London is the lowest for this score it still means that most of its graduates stay or return there.After London(48%),the stickiest regions that keep or attract graduates(Stayers plus Incomers)are the South West(36%),South Eas

143、t(34%)and Yorkshire and Humber(33%).What does all of this mean for higher education institutions?Most of the graduates originally from the region where you are based will now live there.Many,but by no means all,will have studied with you or another institution in the region.Its a significant number

144、either way,and so graduate-level job opportunities are key to your graduate outcomes.Graduates from institutions across the UK will return and compete for jobs with your local graduates,but viewing it in these competitive terms is fatalistic,as the same applies to almost all institutions and regions

145、.Whats needed are strong partnerships between HEIs and local governments and councils,enterprise communities and regional SMEs,to name an obvious few.Examples of regional graduate schemes already exist,many led by AGCAS members and partners,and it is this co-ordinated effort between relevant stakeho

146、lders that can better surface and create graduate-level employment.Without proactive efforts to showcase and generate graduate-level roles in any region,the majority of graduates may find it harder to secure that type of work.How to respond to graduate migration patternsPaul Gratrick,head of operati

149、pped by only 12%in 2019/20.As large parts of the economy shut down,why didnt graduate vacancies fall further?Maybe because many recruitment targets were met when lockdown hit in March 2020,or maybe employers initially thought the pandemic would quickly pass.Id like to think the real reason that busi

150、ness leaders resisted short-term pressures is they realised that to cut recruitment too far would hurt their organisations in the long run.In previous economic downturns,employers who didnt deal effectively with the interns and graduates in their recruitment pipelines damaged their employer brands a

151、nd caused resourcing difficulties that unnecessarily increased their cost base as the economy recovered.Many employers lost business when they couldnt find enough talent to meet the uplift in demand,or they paid a significant premium in the labour market to fill roles which in turn damaged their pro

152、fitability.Unless a business was in a hard-hit sector such as retail or travel,leaders minimised the negative impact to the students in their pipeline to ensure they were able to grow again when the economic climate changed.Many of the graduates who joined organisations in 2020 are now coming to the

153、 end of their training programmes,often into junior management roles.As the COVID crisis deepened,in some sectors hiring remained constant or even increased.Public sector vacancies actually grew by 4%in 2019/20.But other sectors did have to take significant action.Built environment vacancies grew by

154、 25%and retail/FMCG vacancies by 45%.In generalising about the graduate market,we can forget that in reality there are significant sector and regional variations.Impact of online applicationsThe pandemic also impacted student recruitment.As employers moved the entirety of their selection process onl

155、ine,students were able to progress applications without the need to travel.With employers only able to use online channels to reach students,many expanded the range of universities they recruited from.Concerns about the availability of jobs and the decrease in vacancies drove up applications per vac

156、ancy,but so did a more accessible selection process.Students in previous recessions have struggled to disentangle bleak news headlines from the realities of the jobs market(the ISE reported unfilled vacancies in 2009,the worst period in the financial crash).With recruitment levels now well above pre

157、-pandemic levels and students returning to campus life and catching up on missed social experiences,its no surprise that some employers are struggling to attract enough students.The war in Ukraine,and the resultant economic fallout,may yet cause short term damage to the early talent labour market.Bu

160、DIESBusiness and administrative studies overviewThe Graduates Outcomes data shows that 57.3%of graduates from all subjects surveyed were in full-time employment and 9.2%in further study.For business and administrative studies graduates,the equivalent figures were 61.2%and 6.3%respectively.Subjects i

161、ncluded within this professional skills cluster include economics,finance and accountancy,business and management,hospitality,leisure,tourism,and transport,and marketing.Employment statusBusiness and administrative studies subjects showed consistently higher than average numbers of graduates in full

162、-time employment,the highest being marketing(68.7%)and the lowest finance and accountancy(58.8%),still above the all-subject average of 57.3%.Civil engineering was the only other subject with higher numbers of graduates in full-time employment(72.1%).The numbers of business and administrative studie

163、s graduates in part-time employment displayed a wide variance,ranging from 5.2%for economics to 14%for hospitality,leisure,tourism,and transport,perhaps reflecting the different nature of these industries.Many graduates were pursuing further study while also working,showing the need for professional

164、 certification in financial sectors but also the flexibility of employers to support continuing professional development.Economics(13%),finance and accountancy(15.5%)and business and management studies(10.7%)were all above the average of 10.6%.Hospitality,leisure,tourism,and transport(7.7%)and marke

165、ting(7.1%)were among the lowest numbers combining working and studying.SalaryEconomics graduates who had undertaken significant further study had the highest average salaries.Even those economics graduates who had not undertaken further study had higher than average salaries,perhaps highlighting the

166、 range of professional career paths and graduate schemes open to this cohort.Hospitality,leisure,tourism and transport graduates had the lowest salaries reported,with marketing graduates close behind.This could reflect the different sizes of employers within these sectors and the competitive nature

167、of the smaller number of graduate schemes available.UnemploymentThe percentage of business and administrative graduates who classed themselves as unemployed,including those due to start work,averaged 6.7%,ranging from 5.4%for marketing to 7%for finance and accountancy and business and management stu

168、dies.This compares with 5.9%for all subjects.Further studyOverall,9.2%of all-subject graduates were engaged solely in further study,compared to 6.3%of business and administrative studies graduates.This could reflect the number of courses where professional qualifications were included in the course(

169、finance and accountancy 5.2%,business and management studies 5.6%).Economics graduates were almost double this figure with 10.7%in further study,perhaps indicating the requirement for professional accreditation in some sectors through ICAEW,ACCA and CIMA not available in their course.Marketing were

202、 arts study:fine arts,design,media studies,performing arts,and cinematics and photography.Approximately 20,400 creative arts graduates completed the survey(10.6%of total respondents),of which 64%identified as female and 36%male.Of these respondents,13,040 were working in the UK with the female/male

203、split remaining at 64%to 36%.Five key data points1.Creative arts graduates are more likely to work in non-graduate roles than the average for all graduates(41%compared to 28%).Setting up their own enterprises,working in a number of temporary/freelance roles,and supporting societal and non-government

204、 organisations is equivalent.2.On average,creative arts graduates are three times more likely to be working in freelance/self-employed roles.3.Creative arts graduates are less likely to go on to further study(4.7%)compared to the average across all subjects(9.2%).4.Completing a creative arts postgra

205、duate course can lead to higher graduate earnings in the creative industries.We do not have the data to align PG study with their previous undergraduate study,but it is noteworthy that completing a creative arts postgraduate programme leads to significantly higher earnings(approximately 10%).5.Cleri

207、ubjects(68.1%),nearly 13%of creative arts graduates cite running their own business(2.8%)or self-employment/freelancing(9.9%)as their main activity.This is almost triple the number of graduates from other subjects(4.4%).If you also consider the number of creative arts graduates developing a creative

208、 artistic or professional portfolio(9.1%),which is significantly higher than all other subjects(avg 2.2%),this more than makes up for the deficit in employment figures.Although the number of self-employed creative graduates is below the sector average-with the creative industries as a whole reportin

209、g 32%freelancers,compared to 16%in other sectors in 2021-the ratio follows an interesting trend,with creative arts graduates nearly tripling the percentage of entrepreneurial graduates from other subject areas.Entrepreneurial creative arts graduates are more likely to be working in creative occupati

249、D MATHSThe skills gap in science,technology,engineering and maths(STEM)is a long-standing issue,with an estimated shortfall of 173,000 workers in the STEM sector.1 Alongside more applied technical roles,the governments recruitment targets for secondary school teachers have been persistently missed,p

250、articularly in shortage subjects like maths and science.2 A glance at the list of UK shortage occupations reveals how highly sought after these graduates are.DestinationsThe 2019/20 Graduate Outcomes data shows that graduates from technology and engineering disciplines have higher full-time employme

251、nt rates than the all-graduate average(57.3%).Within the technology and engineering group,civil engineering graduates continue to have the highest full-time employment rate(72.1%),followed by electrical and electronic engineering(68.5%),chemical engineering(67.8%),architecture and building(67.2%),me

252、chanical engineering(66.1%)and IT(64.1%).The full-time employment rate for maths graduates is slightly below the others(56.0%).However,this can be explained by the significant number who pursued further study(14.1%)or were both working and studying(10.9%).Graduates from all technology,engineering an

253、d maths disciplines were more likely to enter graduate-level jobs than the all-graduate average(74.0%).The civil engineering rate was the highest(91.4%),followed by architecture and building(89.2%)and chemical engineering(88.3%).Types of workThe data shows engineering graduates typically find roles

254、relevant to their degree with,at the higher end 78.1%of civil engineering graduates,and at the lower 40.8%of chemical engineering graduates,working as engineering professionals.Chemical engineering also had a notable proportion going into business,HR and finance(19.5%),perhaps related to fewer oppor

255、tunities in some more traditional chemical engineering routes,such as oil and gas.3Maths graduates were spread into more sectors,such as teaching,finance,management consultants and business analysts,and programmers and software development professionals,which shows the broad demand for their skillse

256、t.More than two-thirds of IT professionals(67.7%)were in roles related to their degree,which may not be surprising with more technology vacancies being advertised over the last year than in any other sector,showing the high demand for these skills.4Salaries The salary range for technology,engineerin

257、g and maths graduates varies depending on the subject studied.When graduates had not pursued significant study since graduation,IT had a salary range that spanned from 21,509 to 34,840.Highest of the engineering graduates were chemical engineering at 29,944,with mechanical engineering the lowest at

258、27,685,but still comparing favourably to the all-subject average(24,974).Architecture and building graduates had the lowest salary range from 21,451 to 27,677.Its worth noting that pursuing significant study had only a negligible effect on salary.Further studyFor civil engineering,architecture and b

259、uilding,electrical and electronic engineering the rates going into further study were generally low compared to the average for all graduates(9.2%),perhaps due to the vocational nature of these degrees and the demand for graduates from these disciplines.The rate of chemical engineering graduates pur

260、suing further education was slightly higher than average(9.8%).The level of maths graduates pursuing further study was much higher(14.1%).Of these,it is no surprise to see a greater proportion studying a postgraduate diploma or certificate(including PGCE/PGDE),given that one top job for maths gradua

303、0.6%Other occupations 0.7%HUMANITIES39What do graduates do?2023HUMANITIESHumanities degrees have made headlines for all the wrong reasons in 2022.Attacks have come from those who believe the field is elitist and outdated1 and politicians have promised to phase out university degrees that do not impr

304、ove students earning potential.2 Less directly,student numbers have fallen as a result of the systematic promotion of other fields,particularly,for instance,business management.3Data on graduate earnings,work and further study reveals that humanities graduates enter a very broad range of professions

305、 and are more inclined than average to carry on studying after graduation.Work and studyThe Graduate Outcomes survey results show the proportion of humanities graduates in full or part-time work across all subjects is below average(average 68.7%).This is balanced by above average percentages of grad

306、uates engaging in study,or work and study,across all humanities subjects.For example,27.8%of history graduates were engaged in further study compared to the overall average of 19.8%.The humanities graduates that chose to study were most likely to be enrolled in a Masters course or a postgraduate dip

307、loma or certificate(including PGCE/PGDE).UnemploymentUnemployment for humanities graduates was above the overall average rate of 5.9%,especially in English(7.3%),history(7.9%)and philosophy(7.3%).However,these rates were comparable with some science and social science subjects including physics(7.7%

308、),law(7.4%)and IT(7.8%).SalariesFor humanities graduates,mean salaries were below the overall average of 24,974(for those without significant further study).For example,the average salary for English literature graduates 15 months after graduation was 20,593,and for history graduates,22,589.The jobs

309、 and sectors chosen by humanities graduates are likely to contribute to this lower earnings figure.In addition,the high proportion of females studying humanities subjects(for example 82%of English literature graduates in the survey were female,and 73%of languages graduates)exacerbates the adverse im

310、pact of the graduate gender pay gap.4SectorsEducation was the most popular sector chosen by graduates from all humanities subjects in the Graduate Outcomes survey.Many graduates were also engaged in Public administration and defence;compulsory social security,and in a wide range of other sectors,fro

311、m Human health activities to Financial service activities,except insurance and pension funding and Legal and accounting activities.This breadth of options demonstrates the versatility of an education that teaches problem solving,critical thinking and social awareness.It also highlights the potential

312、ly overwhelming choice faced by graduates,and therefore the benefit of work-related exploration and experiences while studying.Skills and confidence The Handshake 2032 report5 suggested that career confidence drops throughout university,with 33%of students surveyed saying they feel very confident ab

313、out their career prospects during year one,dropping to 31%in year two-and to 17%in year three.However,according to the British Academys 2020 report Qualified for the Future6,skills such as communication,collaboration,research and analysis,independence,creativity and adaptability give humanities grad
