PAIS students in high demand

**Warwick’s department of Politics and International Studies (PAIS) is number one for employability, a new report says.**

The department was rated top for employability according to a survey of undergraduate alumni by the Destination of Leavers from Higher Education (DLHE) in _The Guardian_ newspaper.

The PAIS department at Warwick was ranked first among several comparable departments from competitor universities.

This comes shortly after it was reported that [graduates from the University were targeted by more of the UK’s top 100 graduate employers](https://theboar.org/news/2013/jan/23/employers-warwick-we-want-you/) than those from any other UK university.

Approximately 90 per cent of graduates from PAIS proceeded to either graduate-level jobs or further education within 6 months of graduating. This is the highest percentage in the UK.

The average salary among PAIS graduates is £22,675 per annum, one of the highest out of all of the universities surveyed.
