The UWM Career Planning & Resource Center (CPaRC) conducts a survey of all recent graduates
each December and May to assess their post-graduation plans.
Some of the information we gather:
- What are UWM graduates doing – are they working, continuing their education, volunteering, etc.?
- Where are UWM graduates going – what employer, college, city, state, and country do they intend for work, study and residency?

Past Survey Results
*Note: The survey is open for six months; however, the majority of responses are captured within two weeks before graduation to two weeks after graduation. Due to a lack of resources, follow-up for direct information at the six months post-graduation point is not completed, therefore, “still looking” rates are inflated.
