STUDENTS graduating from pharmacy degrees have once again topped the table in terms of employment outcomes, with the latest Graduate Outcomes Survey indicating 95.5% in full-time work shortly after completing their study.
The government-funded survey also compared figures between 2015 and 2018 and found the largest increase in salaries over the period, up 78% ($32,800) but from a relatively low base of $42,300.
Results found a large gender gap among pharmacy graduates, with female pharmacists earning 12% less ($10,300) on average than their male counterparts three years after graduation.
