Undergraduate Career Plans Survey Report 2011-2012
Overview
Each year Career Services surveys the SEAS graduating class to gather information about their post-graduation plans. This
report summarizes the responses from December 2011, May and August 2012 BSE and BAS degree recipients. The school
awarded 361 undergraduate degrees. Career Services received 336 responses, representing a 93% response rate. Of those
students reporting the date they received their offer, 91% were offered employment prior to graduation
.
The top industries in which graduates accepted positions continue to be manufacturing posting a 3% increase and technology
with a 4% increase over last year. Consulting and financial services also continue to be popular industries for our students,
however each saw a decrease in accepted positions: 1% less for consulting and 4% less for financial services.
The overall average salary of the employed respondents rose slightly to $69,234, and more than 100 students reported
receiving a sign-on bonus. As expected, engineers have the highest reported average starting salary of all
Bachelor’s level
students at Penn and a higher average salary than the national average for engineers. The average salary of Penn Engineering
majors (not including computer science related) was $66,229 compared to the national average of $60,639. Graduates in
computer related majors at Penn averaged $80,118 compared to the national average of $60,038 for graduates with computer
related degrees. The national averages are provided by the National Association of Colleges and Employers
, NACE Salary
Survey, September 2012 Executive Summary
.
Full-time employed engineers had an average of two job offers
and 62% accepted positions in the Mid-Atlantic or Northeast
regions, a 2% decrease over last year, reflecting their willingness to relocate for the position. The leading areas of study for
students going to graduate school were 73% in engineering (an 8% increase from last year), 17% in medicine, and 6% in the
sciences.

METHODOLOGY
Engineering students graduating with either a BAS or BSE degree in December 2011, May and August 2012 responded to several
email requests to complete the Career Plans Survey on line between April and November 2012. The SEAS Academic Programs office
sent an email to the graduating students asking them to complete the survey as part of the graduation process. A link was added to
the Engineering section of the Career Services website for any student in the Class of 2012 who was browsing the site. In November a
friendly request (email and phone) was sent to students who had not responded to earlier requests or who had previously indicated
they were still seeking employment or graduate school admission. A search of LinkedIn and the Penn Alumni on line directory was
accessed to search for any updated information from those who had not responded to all requests.
