Abstract

With the increase of the number of college graduates, the scale has gradually exceeded 10 million. With the influence of external environmental factors, more and more college students are facing employment problems, which has become the focus of social attention. This paper mainly uses the method of data analysis to explore the changes in the income of Chinese college students in the past five years. The researcher will discuss the differences in professional income caused by different factors such as professional division, year, university level, gender and region. Based on the project data of MyCOS's "MyCOS 2021 Employment Report for Chinese College Students," this research conducts an empirical analysis of the influencing factors of the monthly starting salary income of undergraduates. The results show that gender, major category, university level, gender and university location all affect the monthly income of college students six months after graduation to some extent.
