Outcomes (school-wide)
Compare on graduate employmentWe don't yet publish program-level outcomes, so Computer Science inherits University of Victoria's verified school-wide figures. These are what feed its program score, never a per-program number we can't source.
How we calculated this 65/100: the real numbers65/100
Each verified outcome is scored 0-100 against the range its peers actually publish, then blended by weight and renormalised over the 1 of 3 metrics University of Victoria publishes.
- 65 ptsGraduate employment93%: graduate employmentscaled within the 86-96.7% range across the 14 peers that publish it → 65/100, weighted 100%
“Of UVic graduates in the labour force and not enrolled in further education, 93% are employed (2024 Survey of 2022 UVic Baccalaureate Graduates)”
