Universities ranked by graduate employment prospects

The Sunday Times newspaper has looked at the employment prospects for various courses and universities. Bear in mind that a 100% employment rate is unlikely as, in 2015, there were around 200,000 graduate level jobs, but 375,000 new graduates as well as job hunters from previous years. That being said, the paper produced various charts using the criteria of the percentage of students in further study or a ‘graduate level’ job.
