The

two

diagrams below depict information on the activities of UK graduate and postgraduate students who did not have a full-time job after graduating from college in 2008.

Overall

, most students of both

groups

have chosen

further

study

,

while

voluntary

work

and

unemployment

of

graduates

were approximately at the same level as

postgraduates

.

However

, the number of

graduates

who had part-time

work

was significantly lower than that of the other group. A common trend amongst

two

groups

of students was their choice of

further

study

, voluntary

work

, and

unemployment

. As with both

graduates

and

postgraduates

, the majority chose to continue their education.

Similarly

,

unemployment

in both

groups

was equal to half the size of those who decided on

further

study

. Voluntary

work

amongst

graduates

and

postgraduates

was incredibly low compared to other selectives.

However

,

according to

the

two

charts, the section for part-time jobs is noticeably different between the

two

groups

.

Whereas

the number of

graduates

with part-time jobs is nearly at the same level as

unemployment

, the level of

postgraduates

who have made

this

choice reaches roughly the rate of

further

study

selection.
