So I went to the Statistics Graduation Reception today (for undergrads receiving a Bachelors of Science in Statistics, Data Science, and/or Informatics), and they had each grad fill out a form with where they are headed after graduation. I was impressed with virtually every placement. The grad schools I heard most included Columbia and Michigan, and the companies I heard most were Amazon and Nielsen. Positions within the various companies were pretty diverse: data scientists, insights analysts, consultants, risk analysts, and software engineers, just to name a few. I always knew my peers were impressive, but I was not expecting almost everyone there to have secured a top notch placement like that. Admittedly, some graduates did not show up to the reception, so this is probably a convenience sample. I just thought that I would share. Go Blue and congratulations to my fellow graduates!
Thanks for sharing yikesyikesyikes. The only graduate I know from the school of Information graduated in 2017 ago and took a job with Boeing.
