Our new Graduate route demonstrates our determination to attract the brightest and best talent from around the world to study and then work in the UK.
A full economic impact assessment for the Graduate Route was published on 4 March 2021 and features a section on the expected labour market impact of the route. This can be found on the gov.uk website or through the following link:
