Lightcast Labor Market Data

is an organization that specializes in the collection and analysis of labor market data. Lightcast products leverage a combination of government data sources and information collected through online job postings and social profiles, which is then synthesized for a variety of reporting and analytic purposes. Below, you can find descriptions of Lightcast data available at ��.

Alumni Pathways Reports

In 2022, �� partnered with Lightcast to compile a snapshot of employment information for our alumni, including positions held, estimated salaries, employers, etc. These data were used to develop the Dashboard. This partnership also allowed the campus to generate additional program- and college-specific reports through Lightcast's Alumni Pathways portal. While this license is no longer active, �� retained the 2022 program reports for all bachelor's and master's degree programs with available data, and these reports are available upon request. Sample reports are linked below.
