Undergraduate Programs
Each year the University's Career Center issues an employment survey to all graduating undergraduate students, including business graduates. The following information is a synopsis of the employment information gathered about Moore School undergraduates graduating during the 2020-2021 academic year.
While we have the most up-to-date data below, Poets and Quants has rated the Darla Moore School of Business as their #6 school for return on investment. That's due, in part, to our undergraduate average 2017-2018 starting salary of $56,089.
