About three-quarters of residents who graduated from the University of Connecticut during recent semesters now work in the state, according to new data from the school.
The UConn Center for Career Development released results of a new survey recently that tracked what recent graduates were doing after earning their degrees from the university. About 75% of employed in-state graduates work in Connecticut, compared to 69% last year, the survey found.
Many graduates originating from out-of-state have chosen to stay in Connecticut, too. According to survey results, 18% of employed out-of-state graduates now work in Connecticut.
The survey data includes information from students that graduated in the fall and winter of 2022 and May 2023.
