The chart illustrates the destinations of Computer Science graduates from one university after completing their undergraduate studies, while the table shows the distribution of their salaries after five years across three employment sectors.
Overall, the majority of graduates secured full-time employment, whereas relatively small proportions pursued further study, worked part-time, or remained unemployed. In terms of salaries, mid- to high-level income bands were the most common, with finance producing the greatest share of top earners.
Looking at post-graduation destinations, more than two-thirds (67%) entered full-time work, making this by far the most frequent outcome. In contrast, only 5% took part-time jobs and 7% were unemployed. Meanwhile, 12% of graduates continued their education at the postgraduate level, and the remaining 9% had unknown destinations.
Turning to salaries after five years, only a small minority earned below $100,000, ranging from 3% in software development to 7% in business management. Slightly larger but still modest shares fell into the $100,000-$149,999 band (12-36%). By comparison, the majority of graduates earned between $150,000 and $199,999, including over half of software developers and nearly half of those in management and finance. At the top end, finance stood out with 38% of employees earning above $200,000, considerably higher than software development (27%) and business management (12%).
