Only 40% of UC San Diego students stay in the region after graduation, according to data from a recent National Bureau of Economic Research working paper. SDSU does better, with 60% percent staying local.
But when it comes to keeping people around after they’ve graduated, the region doesn’t do so well in comparison to other big California metros.
The data highlights the impressive education local schools like UC San Diego provide, but also points to shortfalls in the local economy, said Ray Major, the chief data and analytics officer at the San Diego Association of Governments . “Businesses need to be able to expand here,” he said. “We need to have a business-friendly environment where people can open their business, expand their operations, hire people, and people can work there and live relatively close by at a reasonable cost.”Johnathan Conzelmann, a researcher at the University of North Carolina and co-author of the study, called “Grads on the Go,” pointed to options local leaders could explore.
“That’s one sensible way to think about increasing college-educated labor in San Diego,” Conzelmann said. To retain more graduates, colleges could help graduates with housing, and San Diego should also set up loan forgiveness programs for degrees in certain fields, Enemark said. Currently, the Workforce Partnership is working on such a program in the behavioral healthcare field, which is currently experiencing a massive labor shortage.
