How does it work?<\/b><\/p>\n

We analysed education and job information from 686,720 UK CV’s, and ran each CV through our <\/span>ValueMyCV<\/span><\/a> tool to obtain a salary estimate.<\/span><\/p>\n

Combining all of this data we built a statistical model of your estimated salary based on most recent university, course and years of work experience. We then calculated the expected salary after five years of work experience for all combinations of University and course. This enables the model to estimate the value of hypothetical combinations of universities and course names which don\u2019t currently exist. The tool covers 152 of the 166 institutions across the UK, and 58 courses. Universities were excluded where there was insufficient data to be statistically significant.<\/span><\/p>\n

As well as looking at university courses, we also extracted the most common professions graduates move into within the first five years of work to help students make the right decisions when it comes to choosing an institution or a course.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Did you know?<\/b><\/p>\n

The course with the highest value across all institutions and qualification levels (Bachelor\u2019s, MA or PhD) is Software Engineering, with the vast majority of graduates moving into Web development and App Development roles. The average Web Developer salary is \u00a345,395.<\/span><\/p>\n

Computer Science is in second place with the majority of graduates to be found in Software Development positions five years after graduating. The degree is an appealing option for students, with the average Software Developer salary standing at \u00a350,568.<\/span><\/p>\n

Finance degrees round up the top three, with graduates moving into analytical or management roles five years after graduating.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
