Evidence-adjusted career presence. The 1.21× headline is a modelled rating, not an observed employment rate.

Raw observed/expected ratio: 1.71×. The same continuous evidence adjustment applies to every school: 1 + evidence weight × (raw ratio − 1). Evidence weight: 0.298. 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 1.12× to 1.36×. 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.

Evidence-adjusted career presence. The 1.01× headline is a modelled rating, not an observed employment rate.

Raw observed/expected ratio: 1.01×. The same continuous evidence adjustment applies to every school: 1 + evidence weight × (raw ratio − 1). Evidence weight: 0.939. Small expected cohorts and disagreement between cohort definitions reduce this weight. Traditional reputation does not change a direct rating.
