BLOOMINGTON, I.N (AP) - The Herald-Times reports (http://bit.ly/T7ir40 ) that people with degrees in health, education and biology/life sciences had the best chance of getting and holding a job from 2009 to 2010.

But the odds of employment were against those with degrees related to architecture, industrial arts, consumer service and engineering.

The study by the Indiana Business Research Center used data from the Indiana Workforce Intelligence System to examine the employment history of 178,000 people living in Indiana who graduated from state public colleges and universities.


The study found that health-related majors stood the best chance of landing a job after graduation, regardless of degree level.
