The Innovation Space at UCA EITIC has conducted an analysis of the LinkedIn profiles of the ICT and BIO Engineering degrees graduates from the school (2021 class).
Here we present the most significant results:
- We have found 106 profiles on LinkedIn out of 174 ICT and GEBM graduates from the 2017-2021 class, that is, 61 % of the total number of graduates. 88 profiles seemed updated (50.57 % of the total number of graduates).
- Out of these 88 profiles, 39.77 % have pursued further education after their degrees and 82.95 % work in positions related to their degrees.
- 38.36 % are working in programming, which makes it the main area of employment among the graduates that are currently working.
