Abstract:
Objective To analyze the employment situation of graduates majoring in nutrition and provide employment guidance and reference for them. Methods Materials about 172 graduates of 2013 to 2015 were collected from relevant departments. The software of Excel was used for data processing and SPSS 19.0 was used for data statistics. The crosstabs with chi-square was used for statistic test. Results The overall employment rate was 66.3% (114/172), which was 82.9% (58/70), 56.9% (33/58) and 52.3% (23/44) respectively from 2013 to 2015. There was no statistical difference among different genders ( χ2=1.05, P=0.30) and residence registration types ( χ2=1.06, P=0.30). Graduates who are a member of the Communist Party got a statistical higher employment rate than those who are not (χ2=8.75, P=0.01). Most graduates chose to work in the medical units or to further their study with the proportion of 47.4% (54/114) and 26.3% (30/114) respectively This was especially common for the 2015 graduates. 60.9% of them chose to work in the medical units. And those who chose to work in the urban areas of the city accounted for 64.9%. Conclusion Compared with the employment rates of other majors in the same medical university, the rate of the nutrition graduates was lower. The concerted efforts are needed from the society, the university and the graduates themselves.
