Across all levels and sectors, 76% of 2007/08 full-time new entrants completed their higher education programme within the institution they started in.
Completion rates are somewhat lower among Level 6/7 entrants in the institutes of technology, at 62%, which reflects the different and broader profile of students entering higher education at these levels. The most striking finding of the report is the very positive correlation between Leaving Certificate performance and successful completion. In the institute of technology sector 12% of students enter with more than 400 Leaving Certificate points compared to 73% of university and 91% of college students.

HE (higher education) and FET (further education/training) Graduate Profiles A large majority of both HE and FET graduates that were recruited in the past 24 months were hired from inside Ireland. About one-third of employers hiring HE graduates from within Ireland hired business and law graduates, with 20% hiring engineering graduates, 18% hiring computing graduates and 18% hiring humanities and arts graduates. In general, it is also notable that foreign owned firms, larger firms and manufacturing firms appear more likely than others to hire graduates from science, technology, mathematics and engineering (STEM) disciplines. About one-third of employers hiring HE graduates from outside Ireland, on the other hand, also hired business and law graduates. However, recruitment of HE graduates from outside Ireland also appears to be slightly more skewed towards STEM disciplines, with nearly a quarter of relevant employers hiring computing graduates, 18% hiring science and mathematics graduates and 15% hiring engineering graduates Meanwhile, 28% of employers hiring FET graduates from within Ireland hired business and law graduates, with 21% hiring services graduates, 20% hiring health and welfare graduates and 15% hiring engineering graduates. A similar 28% of employers hiring FET graduates from outside Ireland also hired business and law graduates. Some 23% of employers hired engineering graduates, 19% hired services graduates, 18% hired health and welfare graduates, and 14% hired humanities and arts graduates.
