International analysts QS carries out first evaluation of ‘employability’
THE University of Huddersfield’s high reputation for graduate employability is boosted by its inclusion in a global Top 200.
International analysts QS have carried out their first evaluation of employability among the universities that it ranks. It gathered data covering five key areas – including graduate employability and relations with employers – and used it to compile rankings.
The University of Huddersfield was ranked in a group of universities from around the world who occupy places 151-200 in the rankings.
The first edition of the QS Graduate Employability Rankings are a pilot exercise by the organisation’s Intelligence Unit, which invited universities to submit facts and figures.
“We are delighted to have been ranked and to have consolidated our high international reputation for graduate employability,” said Professor David Taylor, who is the University of Huddersfield’s Pro Vice-Chancellor (International).
The new employability rankings were unveiled in Melbourne, Australia, at the 2015 QS Asia Pacific Professional Leaders in Education Conference.
