Certificates and Degrees at Work: Industries
This chart provides a different view of the RI workers who received degrees or certificates from URI, RIC, and CCRI in the past 10 years, examining their industry of employment.
Health Care & Social Assistance employs by far the largest number of recent graduates. This is in keeping with overall workforce and field of study numbers.
Industries not largely associated with jobs requiring higher education degrees and certificates (Retail Trade, Accommodation and Food Services) employ large numbers of graduates.
