N�����:
UNI reports wages differently than many other
others schools. UNI Career Services has developed
a unique partnership with Iowa Workforce Development that allows the University to see wages paid
to UNI graduates within the industry for which they
work.
The reason for a difference in reporting is that most
schools use self-reported wage data (often less than
10% of the knowledge rate). Further, alumni who
provide wage data often only report when they
have high wages.
