Career Path

Since 2006, IEPM alumni have been recording their contact information and job details to build a networking system. When looking for internships, current students often reach out to previous alumni, which greatly helps in securing opportunities.

⚠️ Alumni information is exclusive to the program, so this is a general summary without specific details.

Alumni Data from the Past Five Years (2018-2022)

1️⃣ Approximately 80 students graduated from IEPM between 2018 and 2022, with about 25% being Chinese students.
2️⃣ Around half of the graduates returned to China. Their main employment sectors include:

  • Sino-foreign joint universities
  • International high schools
  • Government agencies
  • Education companies
  • Roles vary across academic, research, and administrative positions.

3️⃣ The other half stayed abroad:

  • Academic path: Some continued to pursue PhDs or second master’s degrees.
  • Employment path: Jobs in data analysis, academic research, and administration, mainly in U.S. universities or education companies.
    (Some alumni did not update their employment information.)
    I also reviewed data from 2006 to the present on graduates who pursued PhDs. Over 10% of IEPM graduates have either obtained or are currently pursuing a PhD.
