The two bar charts illustrate the different destinations that the British graduates and postgraduates went to after graduation in 2008. Overall, it is clearly observed that the biggest number of both groups of students continued their studies while the smallest percentage of them became volunteers. Furthermore, the proportion of university graduates who were employed in part-time jobs was higher than that of tertiary education alumni.

For both categories, the largest number of students decided to engage in extra learning, being 29,665 and 2,725 for graduate and postgraduate students respectively. In contrast, the lowest rate from the two classes of students was for those who involved in voluntary activities (3,500 graduates and 345 postgraduates). However, about 50% of students from both categories did not find work opportunities.

Regarding the remaining students, 17,735 graduates had part-time careers as opposed to 2,535 postgraduate students. Therefore, when comparing these two figures to the total, the number of postgraduates accounts for approximately 35% of the total number compared to 25% for graduates.
