Abstract: Last year, a survey conducted on how well students were treated after graduating from colleges in the US according to their majors showed that the Department of Chemical Engineering took the top spot. Conversely, it was found that the majors with the worst treatment were theology or religious studies. This is the gist of the 2022 college graduate employment status report recently published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. This is the result of analyzing data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics under the US Department of Labor and data from the Population Census Microdata Service System (IPUMS) of the University of Minnesota Population Center, the world's largest data research institute.
