HC Deb 15 December 1966 vol 738 cc131-2W
Mr. Mawby

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science how many graduates left Great Britain to take up employment within 10 years of graduation in the latest convenient year.

Mr. Goronwy Roberts

384 students who qualified for first degrees and 515 graduates awarded higher degrees in 1964–65 are known to have taken permanent employment overseas. These figures exclude graduates in medicine, dentistry and veterinary science and overseas students returning to their own countries.

Comprehensive information is not available on the numbers of graduates who emigrate after entering employment.
