Employment stats?

Keep in mind that just about all salary/employment surveys from all universities are skewed. Not everyone is thrilled to report that he/she couldn’t find a job or is underemployed or couldn’t find a job in his/her desired field. The salaries you see reported aren’t always real-world and often reflect very few respondents.

I feel confident, however, that UVa SEAS grads do better than the average engineering grad in any case. I receive info from the Career Development office and BME department almost daily regarding upcoming interviews and career guidance/opportunities.
