What the data says
This page is a single-reference view: headline earnings, employment, continuation and satisfaction — each tied to a named source. Where sample sizes are thin or London-weighted, we say so in the honesty flag.
Use the comparator and Path Optimiser to stress-test whether this course type fits the career and income band you want — not whether the university brand impresses relatives.
