Survey to explore career paths of creative graduates
The Institute of Employment Studies (IES) is to undertake a study to explore the career paths of art, design and media graduates. The study, Creative Graduates - Creative Futures, will focus on their experiences of HE, preparation for the labour market, current activities and future aspirations.
From autumn 2008, 25-30 HE institutions, over half of which are AGCAS member services, will contact their art, design and media graduates from 2001-2004 via a postal survey. A follow-up email survey and interviews will take place in spring and summer 2009. The final research report will be available at the end of 2009. Analysis will focus on the issues facing graduates during their early careers and the experiences of graduates from different disciplines.
The study has been commissioned by the partnership of HE institutions, with the support of the Council for Higher Education in Art and Design (CHEAD) and the University of the Arts, London. It is intended as a follow-up to the Destinations and Reflections report completed in 1998.
Further details about the study are available from Linda Ball, the project director, or Emma Pollard, the project manager.
