Employment: 72.6% (drama), 69.7% (cinematics) Further study: 13.8% (drama), 10.3% (cinematics) Unemployment: 7.2% (drama), 11.3% (cinematics) ONLY one institution - Royal Holloway, the London University college at Egham, Surrey - was rated internationally outstanding for research in this collection of performing arts, but it just missed out on full marks for teaching quality and, with it, top place in our table. That distinction went to Warwick, as the only one of the five universities with 24 points for teaching which also achieved a grade 5 for research.
