Hi Emma,
There is a recent article based on a study of Oxford graduates 1960s-80s Humanities Graduates and the British Economy: The Hidden Impact July 2013 http://torch.ox.ac.uk/sites/torch/files/publications/Humanities%20Graduates%20and%20the%20British%20Economy%20-%20University%20of%20Oxford.pdf
These might be useful

You could also have a look at the HEER database
I'd be grateful to be copied in on any other suggestions people have on Humanities graduates as this is my area of interest. I'm also supposed to be starting some research in this area so if you have suggestions for what is needed please get in touch.

Hi
In my Employability and Enterprise blog at Southampton Solent University (http://employabilityandenterprise.wordpress.com/2014/04/15/move-over-stem-why-the-world-needs-humanities-graduates/) back in April we featured an article that first appeared in the Guardian - http://www.theguardian.com/higher-education-network/blog/2014/mar/19/humanities-universities-global-stem
Hope this helps
Best wishes

Emma,
Is it studies that specifically look at students reading a specific subject or ones that include respondents who have read social sciences/humanities? I'm pretty pure the final stage of Future Track, the study headed by Kate Purcell, broke down their findings by general subject area.
best wishes,
Ciaran
