First Destination results are overseen by the President’s Cabinet and conducted by Institutional Research, Planning, and Effectiveness and the Career Center.
This report is intended to provide an overview of the first destination plans of those graduating from Colorado State University (CSU). Complete results are published on the Institutional Research, Planning and Effectiveness web page. Masters and PhD individual program results are not published on the Institutional Research web page, and are intended for internal use only due to the unique nature and size of each graduate program.
Methodology:
All graduating students are encouraged to respond to the First Destination Survey as part of the Graduation Ready process. The current administration of the survey includes graduates from August 2017 through May 2018. Following best practices set by the National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE), follow-up data were gathered through multiple sources including the CSU Follow-Up Graduation Survey, the National Student Clearinghouse, and LinkedIn. The overall knowledge rate (the percentage of graduates that CSU has knowledge of their post-graduation plans) was 81% (n=4012) for undergraduate students and 70% (n=1536) for graduate students.
Salient Undergraduate Student Findings:
• 89% of 2017-18 undergraduates had either a job offer or secured plans for employment/further education, and 85% had their plans secured by December 2018; this is a one percentage point increase from last year.
• Generally, undergraduates with racially-minoritized identities, first generation, and Pell Grant recipients reported slightly lower rates for plans secured. Trans*, non-binary, and gender nonconforming undergraduate students also face greater challenges in the job search and have noticeably lower rates for plans secured than others.
• Internships continued to stand out as being associated with higher rates of securing plans, higher average salaries and higher rates of employment related to major/career plans.
• CSU undergraduates reported being hired by over 1,700 unique employers; this unique number of employers is approximately 100 organizations higher than last year. 83% of those unique employers hired a single CSU undergraduate, 9% hired two, and the remaining 8% hired three or more.
• Approximately 170 unique graduate schools admitted CSU students; this number is just slightly lower than last year but still indicates an impressive breadth of institutions.
• The average salary (full-time permanent) reported by undergraduates ($51,484) was approximately $2000 higher than last year. Those with racially-minoritized identities reported salaries on par with the CSU average, with the exception of Asian American respondents who reported a lower average salary and Black respondents who reported a higher average salary. First generation, Pell Grant recipient, and trans*, non-binary and gender nonconforming respondents reported slightly lower average salaries.
• 82% indicated their employment was related to their major, a one percentage point increase; 85% indicated their employment was related to their career plans, a two percentage point increase. First generation, Pell Grant recipient, and trans*, non-binary and gender nonconforming students indicated lower rates of plans related to majors and career plans.
• 76% of employed undergraduates secured employment in Colorado; students found employment in 45 states and the District of Columbia.
Salient Graduate Student Findings:
• 93% of graduate students had either a job offer or secured plans for employment/further education, two percentage points lower than last year. 91% secured their plans by December 2018.
• With the exception of Black and Hawaiian/Pacific Islander students, those with racially-minoritized identities and trans*, non-binary and gender nonconforming students reported lower rates of plans secured.
• Over 850 unique employers hired CSU graduate students; approximately 25 higher than last year.
• 95% of students indicated that their employment was related to their graduate program, while 94% indicated their employment was related to their career plans. These results are generally similar across racial and gender identities.
• 49% of employed graduate students secured employment in Colorado; graduate students found employment in 47 states and the District of Columbia.
