career by providing a variety of training activities, programs, and services that
support the goals of our students and McKendree University.

Graduates from McKendree University work in a variety of settings after graduation,
including large corporations, small businesses, schools, hospitals, government agencies,
and non-profit organizations, among others. The Career Outcomes Rate for the Class

that is distributed to all students before and after graduation. The survey results
also found that 37% of undergraduate and 4% of graduate students immediately continued
their education by going on to graduate and professional schools in law, business,
medicine, psychology, sociology, and communication, among others. Our knowledge rate
