Stats and Outcomes

We are able to share initiatives and efforts by telling the Notre Dame and Meruelo Family Center for Career Development story through numbers. With strategic programming, partnerships across campus, and a dedicated staff, we’re able to put the spotlight on career education and industry connections to better serve University of Notre Dame students.

First Destination Data

Published annually, the First Destination Report provides insight into the various career paths upon which Notre Dame students have embarked after graduation. Data is collected through an online survey administered by the Office of Strategic Planning and Institutional Research before commencement each May. Content of the First Destination Report includes destinations (employment, graduate school, service, military, etc.), employing organizations, graduate school programs and median salaries.

The Meruelo Family Center for Career Development conducts follow-up research with recent graduates for a period of six months after graduation to obtain the most accurate information about post-graduation plans.
