VITERBO – The AlmaLaurea 2024 Report highlights an excellent result of the University of Tuscia regarding the overall satisfaction of graduates and their employment situation. The indicators published by the Interuniversity Consortium, which represents 82 universities and approximately 90% of graduates in Italy, continue to show values higher than the national and regional average.
“We welcome these data with great satisfaction: our university stands out for the quality of the university experience offered and for the constructive relationships between teachers and students. We are also proud of the results achieved in terms of employment, with a rate one year after graduation that exceeds the national average. This testifies to the effectiveness of our training offer in preparing our graduates to face the world of work and to use the skills acquired during their university studies”, declared the Rector, Stefano Ubertini.
Among the most significant data, it emerges that out of a sample of 1376 graduates from the University of Tuscia involved in the 2023 survey, 91.2% declared themselves very satisfied with the course of study they attended. In addition, the percentage of students satisfied with the degree course attended exceeds the national average (90.5%) and the average of the universities in the Lazio region (90.8%) by almost one percentage point. Furthermore, 92.9% of graduates from the University of Tuscia expressed satisfaction with the relationship with the teaching staff, with a gap of approximately five percentage points compared to the regional value (87.8%) – obtained as the average of the opinions of over 38 thousand graduates from universities in the Lazio region – and four percentage points more than the national average (88.7%).
“As regards professional opportunities, the survey involved a total of 2,299 graduates from the Viterbo university,” adds Luca Secondi, Rector’s Delegate for national and international positioning, “focusing on the performance of the first and second level graduates interviewed one, three and five years after obtaining the qualification. This approach allows you to evaluate the effectiveness of the degree and the impact of the skills acquired in the world of work in the long term. We are very excited to note that an ever-increasing percentage of our graduates consider the degree obtained from our University to be very effective in the context of the work they do, making high use of the skills acquired during their studies”.
For three-year graduates who did not continue their studies, the employment rate one year after graduation – which includes all those engaged in paid activity, both work and training – stands at 76.8% in 2023. This exceeds the national average by more than two percentage points, which is 74.1%, and by three percentage points the average employment rate of universities in Lazio, which is 73.8%. One year after graduation, the average monthly salary is around 1,300 euros. This average value increases to 1,608 euros five years after graduation and stands at 1,587 euros for two-year master’s graduates and 1,850 euros for single-cycle master’s graduates.
A detailed analysis of master’s degrees highlights a growth in the employment rate one year after graduation, going from 74.8% recorded last year to 75.6% for two-year graduates interviewed in 2023. Between the first and fifth year since graduation, there has been a significant increase in the employment rate, which in 2023 reaches an average of 80.5% at University level, based on 2018 graduates interviewed five years after graduation. Analyzing further, five years after obtaining the qualification, we observe an employment rate of 79.5% for master’s graduates and 94.1% for single-cycle master’s graduates.
Analyzing the individual master’s degree courses, high levels of employment are recorded already 1 and 3 years after graduation, reaching almost total employment five years after obtaining the qualification – for master’s degree courses.
