IU Southeast Graduates Post 97% Career Success Rate, Leading Regional Campuses

Q: Beyond the high success rate, which IU Southeast majors face the most challenging job markets?

There is no published evidence in the survey or the supporting material identifying any specific IU Southeast major as facing the toughest job market. The available data point in the opposite direction: IU Southeast reported a 97% positive outcome rate for 2024-25 graduates, with only 2.3% still seeking work. Among those employed, nearly 95% said their jobs were directly related to their field of study, suggesting strong alignment across programs rather than clear weak spots by major. What is documented is where demand appears strongest. Health care, logistics, transportation, manufacturing, education, and business-related fields are supported by major regional employers such as Norton Healthcare, Baptist Health, UPS, and Ports of Indiana. The university’s new supply chain internship partnership with Ports of Indiana also signals especially favorable prospects in logistics and related business programs. If any majors face more difficult conditions, the provided reporting does not name them. To answer that precisely, IU Southeast or Indiana University would need to release major-by-major placement, salary, and graduate-school data. Without that breakdown, it would be speculative to single out particular disciplines as having the most challenging job markets.
