SINGAPORE: 92.2 per cent of students who graduated from the three local universities last year found jobs within six months of graduation, according to figures posted on the Education Ministry's website on Monday.

The employment rate of graduates from the Singapore Management University (SMU) is the highest among the three local varsities.

96.8 per cent of its graduates found jobs within six months of graduation.

In comparison, about 91 per cent of graduates from the National University of Singapore (NUS), and about 89 per cent of graduates from the Nanyang Technological University (NTU) found jobs within six months of graduation.

In terms of salary, graduates from SMU's Information Systems Management course earned the highest mean monthly salary of about S$3,450.

At the other end of the scale are graduates from NUS's Applied Science course. Their mean monthly salary is about S$2,400.

That's slightly lower than graduates from NTU's Art, Design and Media course, who have a mean monthly salary of about S$2,430. - CNA/vm
