The line graph gives information about the percentage of full-time workers holding a university degree among math and all graduates in Australia, while the accompanying table shows the average income of these two groups between 2004 and 2012.
Overall, it is clear that there was a slight increase in the proportion of math graduates and all graduates holding full-time jobs at the beginning of the period before returning to approximately their original levels by the end, while the average salary of both groups increased gradually over the given period.
Looking at the details, the proportions of math graduates and other unspecified graduates stood at 80% and 60%, respectively, in 2004. After two years, these figures increased to 90% and 80% before falling back to their original levels by 2012. Maths degree holders recorded a higher proportion compared to all graduates throughout the period.
Turning to incomes, a similar pattern can be observed in the salaries of math graduates and all graduates in 2004. However, over the next 8 years, salaries rose steadily, reaching 56,000 for math graduates and 51,000 for all graduates by the end of the period.
