Abstract
ABSTRACT This paper investigates which factors are important in determining graduate salaries six years after graduation. The roles of degree class and subject area, postgraduate study, gender, school and family background and other socio-economic factors in determining earnings are investigated using a regression study of earnings for a cohort of 1980 graduates. The relative importance of these factors is also assessed. The results suggest that the most favourable remuneration is received by those who have achieved a high class of degree, studied a vocational subject, obtained a professional qualification and avoided unemployment, and who work in London or overseas. Evidence of interesting gender and social factors are also reported.
