Options with your degree
The pie chart below shows the work and study options
of 2010 graduates from York St John University. This data is
based on the Destinations of Leavers in Higher Education
(DLHE) Survey of York St John University graduates six
months after graduation and only includes information from
those who replied.
Graduate destinations are divided into the following categories:
those who entered employment (part-time, full-time, voluntary);
those who went on to further study; those who were both working and
studying; those who were not available for work or study (e.g.
through illness, travelling abroad, retirement, looking after
dependants or pregnancy); and those who were seeking work or study
opportunities within six months of graduation.
Key:
Category F: Assumed to be unemployed. This
category relates to graduates answering yes to questions asking if
they were due to start a job after the survey date or if they
were unemployed but looking for employment, further study or
training.
Category G: Not available for employment.
This category relates to graduates who were permanently unable to
work/retired, temporarily sick or unable to work/looking after the
home or family or taking time out in order to travel.
Other: This category relates to question not
answered.
