**4.2 The employment perspectives of graduates**

The high quality of educational outcomes is of vital interest for students, their prospective employers and university staff. All three groups of partners aim for a common goal using different approaches and capabilities.

These relations, demonstrated above in a simplified form, are fundamental for the teambuilding spirit, which is based on the commitment of students, tutors and professionals to a quality-focused efficient education. In the MSIB, the healthcare professionals participate in the preparation of curricula, provide opportunities for one-month internships and formulate challenges for young teams of scientists. The university staff cultivates the students' creativity by supervising laboratory exercises and interim projects which constitute a demonstration of the graduates' skills, and can be partly applied in healthcare and industry.

General statistics are favorable for the AGH-UST graduates: 75% of them find their first job within one month after graduation, and 95% within three months. According to other surveys, in 500 of Poland's biggest enterprises, AGH-UST graduates constitute the second largest percentage among senior management staff.
