Information on

Destinations of UK Health and Human Sciences
First Degree Graduates 2007 - 08

Every year our graduating students (from the UK and the EU) are surveyed six months after they leave as part of the national survey ‘Destinations of Leavers from Higher Education’. These data are used to give a snapshot of what they are doing, whether work, looking for work, further study or maybe taking time out to travel. Remember, when looking at this information, that it is collected very soon after qualification and may not reflect the eventual choice of career of the graduate.

Degrees covered: Health Care Practice; Social Psychology and Sociology.

Number of Home & EU graduates responding to the survey: 14 (82% of Health and Human Sciences graduates surveyed)
