About the Compare Study Options tool
- If you get a search result saying “No data available”, there may still be people who graduated in this area and study level. This is because results for searches that correspond to a small number of graduates or for which all students study at a single provider aren’t shown, to avoid the risk of data for an individual being identified.
- The results show what graduates earned between 1 April 2020 and 31 March 2023.
- Earnings have been converted to 2023 dollars to adjust for inflation.
- Earnings data only reflects graduates that are employed.
- Earnings are median salaries. This is the halfway point in the ranking of earnings – so not everyone has earned this amount. Half of graduates have earned more than this amount and half have earned less.
- Earnings are actual annual (gross) earnings and do not take account of hours of work. This means earnings will be understated for any qualification/field of study where there are significant numbers of young graduates in part-time work.
