Destination of Leavers from ÖйúAƬ 2011-12, published on ?June, looks at UK and European Union leavers from UK institutions about six months post-graduation.

While 9 per cent of full-time first-degree graduates with known destinations were unemployed, the figure was 10 per cent for holders of full-time ¡°other postgraduate¡± degrees, including research and teaching master¡¯s but not PhDs or PGCEs. Unemployment was much lower among the latter groups (6 per cent and 2?per cent respectively). At 15 per cent, doctoral graduates also had the highest proportion working overseas.

The data ¨C which cover 411,005 UK and EU leavers with known destinations ¨C draw on a new version of the survey introduced for the first time in 2011-12, so cannot be compared with previous results.

Notes: Data collected from all UK publicly funded ÖйúAƬ institutions plus the University of Buckingham. Refers to full-time students only. ¡°Other¡± includes taking time out for travelling and ¡°something else¡±. ¡°Unemployed¡± includes those expected to start a job in the next month and not otherwise working or in further study. Does not include ¡°unknown¡± students, who refused to answer or did not respond to the survey.
