**Social science graduates more likely to be in work than other graduates, report says
The Campaign for Social Science released a major new report, What Do Social Science Graduates Do?
http://bit.ly/cfssgrads
The key findings are:
* Social science graduates are more likely to be in work than STEM or arts-humanities graduates, 3.5 years after graduating.
* Of those in work, social science graduates are more likely to be ‘managers, directors and senior officials’ at the same point in time.
* Social science graduates are also more likely to be employed in the professional and scientific industries.
**The Urgent Anthropology Fellowship Programme 2014-17 will be based at the British Museum.
The first fellowship has a specific focus, on threatened Nile Valley communities in northern Sudan.
