2024 UE Graduates Achieve Strong Career Outcomes
Evansville, Ind. (06/30/2025) — The University of Evansville (UE) is proud to announce a 98 percent career outcome rate for the Class of 2024, reflecting continued excellence in student preparation and post-graduate success.
This figure indicates that 98 percent of graduates are either employed or enrolled in further education within months of graduation. The data reflects outcomes for students who completed their degrees in December 2023, May 2024, June 2024, and July 2024.
The Center for Career Development collected this information using a variety of sources, including surveys of graduating students, academic department updates, and national databases. Career information was successfully gathered for 97 percent of the class, offering a strong and reliable snapshot of the next steps for this graduating class.
Among those pursuing additional education, 20 percent of graduates have entered graduate or professional programs. Of these, 72 percent are attending institutions in Indiana, including the University of Evansville, Indiana University, and Purdue University. Another 25 percent of graduates who are not currently enrolled expressed plans to begin graduate school within the next three years.
"At the University of Evansville, we strive to empower every student to think critically, act bravely, serve responsibly, and live meaningfully in a changing world," said UE President Christopher M. Pietruszkiewicz. "This extraordinary outcome rate reflects not just the strength of our academic programs, but the determination of our graduates to make a difference in their careers and communities."
The report also shows UE's commitment to ongoing student support. Nearly half of the Class of 2024 received personalized outreach from the Center for Career Development after graduation, offering continued guidance and resources as they transition into their professional lives.
The full report was completed in April 2025 and aligns with national standards for first-destination outcomes reporting established by the National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE).
The University of Evansville is a private, comprehensive university with a solid foundation in the arts and sciences and professional schools in business, engineering, education, and health sciences. Established in 1854, UE is recognized across the globe for its rich tradition of innovative, academic excellence and dynamic campus community of #Changemakers.
