Where Did UM Graduates Go?

Twice a year the University Career Center & The President's Promise collects data from the graduating class in December and May. This data is not only useful to show the strength of the students at UM but it can also give current students a glimpse as to what they can do with their majors.

How to view the data:

First, set up an account in the Center’s jobs and internships database, Careers4Terps (http://c4t.umd.edu/). On the main page of your Careers4Terps account, click the link to "Where Did UM Graduates Go?" and select the college and major you are interested in researching.
