    Engineering#11Limited confidence · Estimated1.19× career presence
    How estimated

    Evidence-adjusted career presence. The 1.19× headline is a modelled rating, not an observed employment rate.

    Raw observed/expected ratio: 2.08×. The same continuous evidence adjustment applies to every school: 1 + evidence weight × (raw ratio − 1). Evidence weight: 0.174. Small expected cohorts and disagreement between cohort definitions reduce this weight. Traditional reputation does not change a direct rating.

    With alternative stability settings, this rating ranges from 1.10× to 1.37×. This is a model-sensitivity check, not a confidence interval or range of hiring odds.

    Position ranges group the model's ordering for readability; they are not statistical confidence intervals. Traditional reputation is a proxy, not evidence of placement in this industry or programme availability.
