The survey is sent to all approximately 29,800 alumni who graduated with a bachelor’s or master’s degree from a university of applied sciences in 2020. The national career tracking survey provides up-to-date information about working life for the use of higher education institutions.

The survey is carried out by the universities of applied sciences in cooperation with CSC – IT Center for Science Ltd.
