The University of Bordeaux highlights the pathways and successes of its students through surveys and statistics from its Observatory of Training and University Life (OFVU). This data covers the entire course of study, from enrollment in BUT, PASS, bachelor's, master's, doctorate, or health degrees, to post-graduation professional integration.
Regarding success rates, data for students enrolled in 2024-2025 is available for bachelor's, BUT, and master's degrees. The study paths of new high school graduates are also detailed: 50% validate a bachelor's degree at the university, while 17% reorient towards other programs like BTS or DUT.
Professionalization is a major focus for the university. In 2024, nearly 10,000 internships were completed, with a 90% satisfaction rate among students. Detailed dashboards by field and level are accessible for the 2024, 2023, and 2021 cohorts.
The professional integration of graduates is closely monitored. Surveys on the outcomes of bachelor's, master's, doctorate graduates, as well as those in work-study or continuing education programs, provide indicators on their employment and further studies. For instance, the survey on the 6-month outcomes for those enrolled in work-study or continuing education for the 2024 cohort is available.
The OFVU also coordinates studies within territorial partnerships, shedding light on student trajectories from higher education entry to professional integration. The observatory, headed by Simon Macaire, serves as a key resource for students, prospective students, and teaching staff.
