The University of Notre Dame Australia has once again ranked as one of the top universities in the country for undergraduate employment outcomes.
The latest Graduate Outcomes Survey (GOS), released this week by the Federal Government, reveals that the University has considerably improved its performance for undergraduate employment in 2022 – rising to be the fourth best performing university in the country in full-time employment.
The number of undergraduates securing full-time employment has risen by more than 8 percent to 85.5 per cent in 2022.
Meanwhile the number of undergraduates in overall employment has also improved, with the University lifting its standing to be the fifth best performing university in the country.
The overall employment rate for undergraduates increased from 89.4 per cent in 2021 to 91.4 per cent in 2022.
The University of Notre Dame is delighted to be ranked as the top performing university in WA for both full-time and overall employment. The University is ranked fourth in New South Wales for full-time employment and third for overall employment.
Vice Chancellor Professor Francis Campbell said the results reflected the University’s holistic student centric approach to education and ongoing commitment to real-world learning.
“Our students are sought after by employers because of our strong focus on practical experience, as well as our goal of educating and forming the whole person to help them achieve their full potential,” Professor Campbell said.
“The unique education experience provided by Notre Dame gives our students the tools to thrive and make important contributions to their community.
“Our students leave university empowered and prepared for the next phase of their lives, and this is reflected in the survey results.”
The survey also revealed the median salary for Notre Dame graduates increased by $1300 to $68,900 in 2022, putting it above the national average.
The Graduate Outcomes Survey is part of the Federal Government’s Quality Indicators for Teaching and Learning (QILT) survey program. The results of the survey are published on the QILT website.
