6 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This year marks the 32nd edition of the report on the First Destinations survey of University of Limerick graduates. This survey is conducted every year by the Cooperative Education & Careers Division as part of a nation-wide survey, on behalf of the Higher Education Authority. The survey report reflects the status of UL graduates nine months after graduation, providing accurate and comprehensive information on employment and further study patterns. It also provides details of the employment sectors, regions of employment, and salary levels. This exercise has generated valuable data on graduate employment trends over a long period of varying levels of economic and social development. This information is of benefit to students, university management, employers, policy makers and all with an interest in higher education. There is evidence which indicates that the employment prospects for Irish graduates is improving. There has been a significant increase in the level of graduate recruitment activities on campus in the past year as employers target UL graduates because of their academic ability and the employability skills developed through their Cooperative Education and Teaching Practice experience. This is reflected in the recent international QS Star Ratings which awarded UL a 5-Star rating for Graduate Employability, on the basis of the work-readiness of graduates, employer recommendations, and the careers support available to students. The survey of the graduates of 2012 was conducted in April 2013 and the results reflect the employment and further study pattern of 82% of the 2,875 graduates who completed full-time programmes of study in UL during The survey covers all award levels, up to and including PhDs. The key features of the survey findings for the different award levels are as follows: Primary Degrees 63% of graduates went directly into employment, 50% in Ireland and 13% overseas. It is not possible to make comparisons with the national employment level of graduates as that data is not yet available but the employment record of UL graduates has always been consistently higher than that national average There was a decrease in the number of graduates opting for further study or research, from 25% to 24%. This may be attributed to the general decline in disposable incomes in Irish households which makes postgraduate course fees unaffordable for many. There was a 1% increase to 5% in the percentage who were 'not available' for employment or further study. There has been very little variation in this percentage over the past five years, ranging from 4% to 6%. The number of graduates seeking employment (8%) has remained constant over the last 2 years. This is lower than the official labour market unemployment figure which is currently in excess of 13%. There has been a decrease of 1000 on average starting salary levels for new graduates in the past year. The results record an average starting salary of approximately 23,346. Business, Finance and Insurance sectors between them accounted for the highest proportion of graduates at 22% which is unchanged on last year. Education at 20% has decreased 2% on last year, and Health at 14% has increased by 2% on last year. 6 First Destinations Report, UL Graduates 2012

7 The Mid-West (34%) has continued to be the most popular region of employment for UL graduates while Dublin accounted for 30% of jobs, followed by the South-West, at 13%. The most popular overseas location was the UK at 43%, followed by the North America at 15%. The overall employment rate for Education graduates increased by 1% to 78%, which includes 18% of these teaching overseas which has increased by 7% on last year. Higher Degrees 66% of those graduating with Postgraduate Diplomas in 2012 found employment. Of this, the majority are working in Ireland with only 5% working abroad. A total of 582 graduates completed Masters Degrees in 2012 and 73% went directly into employment, 13% of these overseas. Some 8% continued with their studies primarily to PhD level. The highest employment rate was recorded by PhD graduates with 81% employed. PhD graduates are also more likely to seek research opportunities overseas, and 19% are working outside of Ireland. Salary levels increase in accordance with level of qualification and, for those with postgraduate qualifications, average salaries range from 27,000 to 35,500, depending on type of qualification, sector of employment and nature of job.

Similar trends are evident in the percentage of graduates seeking employment, ranging from a low of 2% to a high of 11%. The most recent survey reports a drop in the number of graduates seeking employment to 8% which is significantly lower than the national unemployment rate, currently in excess of 13%. 8 First Destinations Report, UL Graduates 2012

This chart highlights the variation in employment patterns across degree disciplines, with the highest employment rate recorded by graduates in Education & Health Sciences graduates who have completed professional programmes. These courses are traditionally associated with high employment, and have maintained this record despite recruitment embargoes in the public sector which accounts for the majority of jobs for these graduates. The employment rate of Business graduates decreased from 69% to 65%. There was a corresponding increase of 6% in the number of Business graduates opting for postgraduate study, from 20% to 26% and also a drop in those not available for employment from 4% to 3% and seeking employment remains constant at 6%. Postgraduate study has always been a popular option for graduates in the Arts, Humanities & Social Science disciplines. This is clearly reflected in the most recent statistics which show 41% of graduates opted for further study. This attraction to further study is also a characteristic of Engineering & Science graduates with 22% opting for postgraduate study or research activities. First Destinations Report, UL Graduates

The higher the qualification award, the more likely graduates are to enter the labour market and the less likely they are to continue to further study. PhD graduates recorded an exceptionally high employment rate of 81% and this reflects sustained activities in research and development in some of the key graduate employers in Ireland, both multinationals and indigenous companies. Master Research shows the highest rate of graduates working overseas as many are attracted by academic posts in international research institutes or universities. Employment by gender across all award levels: UL graduates % 90% Female Male 80% 70% 60% 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% 0% In Employment In Further Study or Not available for Training employment Current Situation Seeking employment Female graduates outnumber male graduates by 51% to 49% and record a higher employment rate of 66% to 67%. The survey results show that males are also more likely to continue to further study and are less likely to be seeking employment or be unavailable for employment. This trend has been evident in previous survey reports and may be due to the higher presence of female students in the Education & Health Sciences programmes, which also record the highest employment rates. There is no direct evidence of a gender bias in recruitment patterns. In fact, it is more likely that the degree discipline has a stronger influence on employment prospects than the gender of graduates. 10 First Destinations Report, UL Graduates 2012

The above chart displays only salary ranges up to 41,000. It is important to note however, that a significant number of research masters and PhD graduates are on salaries well above this level but it has not been possible to display this accurately in the above composite chart as it would skew the overall distribution across other award levels. The distribution of salary levels for these two cohorts can be found in section 7 of this report. Salary levels increase in accordance with the level of qualification, with average salaries ranging from 23,400 for a primary degree graduate to 38,500 for PhD graduates. It is difficult to make accurate assumptions based on the salary data, 85% of respondents have declared salary details. Also, the survey records only the starting salaries for graduates and cannot reflect any differences that might arise at a later stage in the graduates careers. It is likely that many of the differences in salary levels can be accounted for by degree discipline, level of award, type of employer or location of employer. These are evident in the more detailed sets of charts provided in section 3.5 of this report. First Destinations Report, UL Graduates

12 3 OVERVIEW OF SURVEY RESULTS: Primary Degree Graduates 3.1 First Destinations of 2012 Graduates: All Faculties Seeking employment Not available for 8% employment 5% Current Situation In Further Study or Training 24% In Employment Ireland 50% In Employment Overseas 13% The total number of Primary Degree graduates in 2012 exceeded 1, % are accounted for in the survey results. The pattern of first destinations for this cohort of graduates is as follows: This year, the employment rates have remained constant with the previous year, with values of 50% for employment in Ireland and 13% for employment overseas. There has been a further decrease in the number of graduates opting for further study or research, down 1% from last year to its current level of 24%. This may be attributed to the general decline in disposable incomes in Irish households which makes postgraduate course fees unaffordable for many. The percentage of graduates who were not available for employment or further study has increased by 1% to 5%. There has been no change in the number of graduates seeking employment which remains at 8%. This figure is significantly below the official labour market unemployment level which is currently at 13%. Note: Detailed information on each of the individual degree courses is presented in section First Destinations Report, UL Graduates 2012

13 3.2 Employment Sectors: All Faculties Sectors Business, Finance & Insurance 22% Education Other 20% 19% Health 14% Manufacturing 12% Transport & Distribution 7% ICT & Telecommunications 5% Civil Service 1% 0% 5% 10% 15% 20% 25% The sectoral distribution of graduate jobs varies greatly across the different degree disciplines, as reflected in the course charts on the following pages. Only the larger sectors are highlighted in this commentary. The overall trends for all Primary degree graduates are as follows: The combined Business, Finance and Insurance sectors remain strong, accounting for the highest proportion of graduates at 22%. A further analysis of this group shows that approximately 34% are employed in accountancy and legal services and 44% are employed in banking, finance and insurance with the remainder employed in other related sectors. The dominance of the public sector is again evident from the survey results, accounting for 35% of graduate jobs, down 4% from last year. Foremost is the Education sector at 20%, which has decreased by 6% on last year, whereas the Health sector showed an increase of 2%, and the Civil Service remains static at 1%. The Manufacturing sector has increased by 1%, accounting for only 12% of jobs. The ICT and Telecommunications sector remains consistent with last year at 5% but has capacity for a much higher intake of graduates. This sector is suffering from the current shortage of graduates in computing disciplines which has been a feature of higher education in recent years. First Destinations Report, UL Graduates

This chart relates to over 71% of graduates who declared their salary levels. This year s survey results show the average starting salary for UL graduates in 2012 was 23,400. This is considerably lower than the average salary of 28,000 which was recorded four years ago. There was a decrease of 8% in the number of graduates at the higher end of the salary scale, with 18% of respondents reporting salaries in excess of 29,000 by comparison with 26% last year. There was also a decrease in the number of graduates at the lower end of the salary scale, with 17% on salaries below 17,000 by comparison with 20% last year. This was offset by an increase in the number of students in the 17,000-29,000 salary range to 65%. 8% of graduates are on the lowest salary band, earning salaries of less than 12,999. This might be due to part-time work or possibly because of the impact of the unpaid or lowly paid graduate internship programmes introduced by the government as a job creation measure. The average salary for male graduates was 23,600 by comparison with 23,037 for female graduates. This is a very small difference and cannot be directly attributed to gender bias. On the whole, salary levels are more likely to be influenced by factors such as degree discipline, type of job, sector of employment or location of employment. Detailed salary information is presented in the individual course tables in the next section of this report. 14 First Destinations Report, UL Graduates 2012

The most popular overseas location was the UK at 43%, followed by the North America at 15%. UK has retained its position as the preferred location, accounting for 43% of jobs. This can be attributed to the number of teachers and nurses finding work in the UK as Irish qualifications are in demand in demand in these sectors. North America is a popular location for UL graduates, accounting for 15% of jobs, the next most popular is UAE, accounting for 14% of jobs, primarily one large network of international schools in the United Arab Emirates has been one of the largest employers of UL graduates in recent years. 56% of those working abroad have stayed within the EU.
