Placement information is captured by the TGS Career Outcomes Database using graduate responses from the Exit Survey and Survey of Earned Doctorates, and updated with the help of faculty and staff after each graduation. The database is intended to capture all first placement information, as well as subsequent placements since graduation. This summary presents the placement information TGS has captured on graduates' first placements, including temporary positions.
In Summer Quarter 2015, TGS began a transition to a new Career Outcomes Database. Position types and sectors may not necessarily align with placement categories from previous years. These new sectors help to more accurately track career placements outside of the traditional academic path.
Category Definitions Refers to the primary purpose of the organization (e.g. an engineer working for an energy Career Sector/Industry company would indicate "Energy & Sustainability," not "Engineering").
Refers to the day-to-day work of the graduate (e.g. working in Information Technology at a Position Type law firm).
