NOTES
(1a) Students responding to the 2013-14 iteration of the survey had the option to select multiple post-graduation plans; thus, E, F, G, H, & I do not sum to the total respondents (C).
(1b) Data reporting will change 2014-2015 academic year and will be released roughly six months later than previous iterations due to changes in data collection.
(2) Students receiving degrees are only counted once and are placed using their primary degree plan.
(3) Includes full and part-time graduate education and continued undergraduate coursework.
(4) Includes military service, starting a family, travel, volunteering, and "other."
(5) Includes full and part-time employment for individuals who provided the name of their employer. Percent employed in Missouri is percent of those providing state of employment.
(6) Related includes "highly related" and "somewhat related." Degree/Employment Relationship numbers do not
sum to Employed Numbers because not everyone answered this question.
(7) Average salary reported for only those groups with 5 or more students to protect privacy.
