Research graduate outcomes project
Griffith has now undertaken two major projects to collect and understand research graduate outcomes. In 2018, we heard from over 1,400 Griffith research graduates, producing a valuable pre-pandemic dataset of employment and career pathways. In 2024, we built on this project and collected up-to date, post-pandemic graduate outcomes data from research graduates across Australia and from all seven of the Innovative Research Universities.
Information for external partners
We are motivated to partner with organisations that would like to co-invest and shape our HDR graduates of the future
