Included in "positive outcomes" numbers are graduates committed to their first destination, including jobs in industry, government, military and those who are going to graduate school as well as international students returning to their home countries. Non-responsive or self-reported "not looking" graduates are removed from reported data and presented separately. Students are coded as non-responsive after five outreach attempts, no known activity with the Career Center, and/or by request of the student. Data is collected for 6 months following graduation.

1 The Career Center is now coordinating with Institutional Research (IR) at Mines. Detailed outcome and salary data is available through Tableau/IR for tailored, accessible reports to Mines community.

* Salary statistics are coded as N/A when 3 or less students report salary data for the full-time employed category of a respective major to maintain confidentiality for graduates. Data collected from these graduates is incorporated in overall calculations.
