These tables and charts show the employment and compensation experience of students who graduated from our 18 public colleges for each cohort from 2015-2016 through the 2019-2020 school years. The report also provides a summary of employment by industry sector and college degree program for the graduates of each system of education.

For each cohort we show employment and wages the third quarter after graduation and for the third quarter of each year from 2018 and for the third quarter of 2021 – the latest data available at the time this report was produced. Caution must be used when considering the earlier wages for later cohorts. For example, they might include earnings while still enrolled in school.

All the data and analyses provided in this report reflect employment in Connecticut only and exclude self-employment and federal employment. Some graduates not found to be working in Connecticut may have found employment in other states or may be continuing their education (i.e., attending graduate school). Data on employment in other states, the federal government, and self-employment are not available for this analysis.
