Graduate Outcomes Survey

Your journey after LSE matters

From shaping public policy to transforming businesses, communities and lives across the world, LSE graduates go on to do remarkable things. 

The Graduate Outcomes survey is how these stories are captured. It gives you the opportunity to share what you’re doing after university and helps ensure the value and impact of an LSE education is recognised, understood and strengthened for future cohorts of students.

What is the Graduate Outcomes survey?

It is the UK’s biggest annual survey of alumni (15 month post graduation). It looks at what you are doing after completing your studies, including: 

  • Employment 

  • Further study 

  • Other activities 

  • How higher education has supported your career progression and wellbeing 

The survey is run nationally and completed by alumni from across the UK, including those who studied at LSE. 

There is no public link to the survey, you can only take part if you are contacted directly. That’s why keeping your details up to date is so important.

Why your response matters, especially as an LSE graduate

Make your voice count 

LSE alum are known for thinking globally, critically and independently. The survey is a chance to reflect on that reality, in your own words, and on your own terms. 

By taking part, you help: 

  • Show the real-world impact of an LSE education

  • Inform future students deciding whether LSE is right for them

  • Shape course development, teaching and student support

What happens next?

Your Graduate Outcomes journey is simple:
