Student Career Outcomes

The Fleishman Center for Career and Professional Development collects information for the university about Binghamton students' first destination after their undergraduate education. At Binghamton, this is called the First Destination Survey or FDS. Students who are graduating are asked to complete the survey so that we can track student outcomes and provide current Binghamton students with a sound perspective on the value and impact of a Binghamton degree.

The Fleishman Center for Career and Professional Development collects information for the university about Binghamton students’ first destination after their undergraduate education. At Binghamton, this is called the First Destination Survey or FDS. Students who are graduating are asked to complete the survey so that we can track student outcomes and provide current Binghamton students with a sound perspective on the value and impact of a Binghamton degree. 

Below you will see our outcomes tool, where you can search by Major to see the outcomes of Binghamton graduates. It’s important to note that, 

  • Academic programs that have fewer than 5 responses do not share the information for privacy purposes.
  • First Destination summaries are based on the Knowledge Rate of graduate outcomes six months after graduation, according to National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE) guidelines.
  • Knowledge Rate, defined by NACE, includes direct survey responses and basic employment or graduate school information confirmed through LinkedIn. Binghamton’s information below on Starting Salary is based only on direct survey responses.

Helpful Tips for the Interactive Tool:

  • There is no Enter or Submit Button; results will appear automatically
  • The default is ‘All Years’ or ‘All Majors.’ Choose specific years or majors for more granular results. Uncheck the selected major(s) to reset your search.
  • The tool returns results with at least five responses. For small majors, choose ‘All Years’ to show results
  • To ensure confidentiality, results are reported in the aggregate. Additional years will be added as class years graduate

First Destination

First Destination refers to the postgraduate plans of Binghamton University graduates six months after graduation. The first destinations of graduates include continuing education, full-time employment, part-time employment, seeking employment, seeking continuing education, volunteer service, not seeking employment, and military service.

How can I use this information as a student? Understanding the first destination of recent Binghamton graduates can help students know the most prevalent paths alumni take after graduating with a certain degree.

Fictional example, if I am a psychology major and I see that 76% of graduates go on to graduate school, but I don’t think I’m interested in doing that, it would be important for me to meet with the Fleishman Career Center and discuss careers that don’t require that advanced degree so that I understand my options.
