The research draws on data from four national data sources: the Higher Education Statistics Agency (HESA) Destination of Leavers from Higher Education survey (DLHE), the Annual Population Survey (APS), the 1958 National Child Development Study (NCDS) and the 1970 Birth Cohort Study (BCS). It also refers to earlier work using UCAS data. It provides detailed empirical evidence on the career paths of STEM graduates from the early 1980s to the current decade.
