UNIVARIATE ANALYSIS REVIEW

1. INTRODUCTION
The College of Business Studies began in 1991 with a Diploma in Business
Studies, trying to respond to the strong demand for these studies at the
University of Cordova. Almost 15 years later there is a need to know how
the graduates have joined the labor market. Also they want to know if
they worked before, during or after school and on what activities, so that
we can draw any conclusions that may characterize them. We may also
get a more direct approach to the market needs, the problems
encountered when looking for employment, and the need for other
additional training, so that they can adapt their teaching best social and
business demand.
In short, the overall objective of the study is the knowledge from various
labor market prospects of our graduates.
