Customized learning and possible career trajectories based on an individual's interests are key benefits of interdisciplinary study. Given that breadth and depth, MAPSS graduates accept positions across a diversity of positions, organizations, and industries.
MAPSS places more graduates in data and research, in both for-profit and not-for-profit sectors, than any other fields. In a survey of the Class of 2023 (with 77% responding), 91% of those graduates accepted full or part-time employment or were accepted into doctoral programs within 9 months of graduation.
This list is a comprehensive look at all the organizations that hired MAPSS graduates for rolesupon graduation from 2017-2021. It is organized by most common industries, and the “Other” categorization captures companies that do not fall into one of the other fields.
