The U.S. Census Bureau has announced new data-sharing agreements with Brigham Young University-Idaho and the University of North Carolina System for its Post-Secondary Employment Outcomes (PSEO) experimental data product. The PSEO tracks earnings and employment outcomes for college and university graduates, broken down by degree level, major, institution, and state.
These partnerships add data from 17 additional post-secondary institutions to the PSEO dataset. With this update, the program now covers 952 institutions and includes about 35% of all college graduates in the United States.
The PSEO relies on collaboration between universities, university systems, state education departments, state labor market information offices, and the Census Bureau. Users can access graduate outcome data through the PSEO Explorer tool, raw files, or the Census API.
“The PSEO provides earnings and employment outcomes for college and university graduates by degree level, degree major, post-secondary institution, and state of institution, and is used by parents, students, institutions, and workforce agencies to learn about the labor force outcomes of graduates,” according to the U.S. Census Bureau.
