Male graduates significantly more likely to get high-paid jobs

Graduate Outcomes data also show differences in earnings between subjects

Men are significantly more likely to be among the highest earners 15 months after graduation from a UK higher education institution, data from the Higher Education Statistics Agency show.

According to statistics published on 27 July, there were 5,075 women earning at least £45,000 15 months after graduation, compared with 7,410 men. This is despite that fact that there were around 30,000 more women surveyed in total than men.
