Where Graduates Go
Each year, UWS, along with all other Australian universities, carries out a survey asking new graduates what they are doing. This takes place about four months after completion of a degree.
Below you will find a selection of the employment destinations entered in recent years by new bachelor degree graduates under the age of 25. This is not a complete list (for example there are no duplicates) but is a broad sample of the sorts of first jobs graduates entered. There is no guarantee that the employers listed will be recruiting graduates in the immediate future. If you are interested in any opportunities that these employers may have available for recent graduates, check their websites to see what current positions are open for application.
Lists for other disciplines will be available soon, and there will also be information about further study destinations – many new graduates continue with full-time study after a first degree.
