According to the Higher Education Statistics Agency, 96% of UWE Bristol graduates are in work or further study 6 months after graduating, with 78% working in professional roles. These compare to national averages of 94% and 71% respectively. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/University_of_the_West_of_England
