The LSE Careers Service a survey of all graduates six months after graduation, on behalf of the Higher Education Statistics Agency (HESA). Although HESA only require destinations details from UK and EU graduates, we also survey non-EU alumni, in order to represent the diverse student body that we have at LSE. Below is a breakdown of all employment and destinations of the graduates that responded to the survey over the past five years.
