 This spring and summer, college students earned their diplomas and prepared for the next step. A Georgetown University study uncovered employment rates based on majors for recent grads. I graduated May of 2013. Nursing students had the lowest rate of unemployment. Now I'm working at Master General's of Nurse. Murphy previously worked at MGH as a Northeastern University co-op student. Working on the floor beforehand and having the experience and having people know who I am definitely led me to the job. Not all recent grads are as lucky. Architecture majors have the second highest rate of unemployment, only surpassed by information systems majors. Not much money on the market. No one wants to build. You kind of have to be creative with where you get your work. Seperetti completed his undergraduate degree in architecture. I had a couple of job options, but one of them was unpaid. And it was something I liked doing, but it was the fact that they weren't offering me any money. And then the other one was for a structural engineer, which really wasn't what I started off to do in the first place. Now he is in the Wentworth Institute of Technology one-year master's program. He hopes that a connection with a professor or a former co-op will lead to a job. We're doing research into what they want to do, and they're the ones with the money, so they might be able to pay us. All majors examined in the study showed a decreased unemployment rate and an increased salary for those holding a graduate degree. For BUTV 10 News, I'm Mollie Koek.
