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.

0.36) and there are two ages that ages considered as outliers (17 years old graduate).It is
also shown that the mean age of graduates is 31.96 years with a standard deviation of 5.16
years, the age range was 26 years that’s runs from minimum age of 17 to maximum age of
