I was pretty much in the same boat when I was close to graduating. I was working on a Master's in Engineering which meant my time to go out was limited. Most of my friends had graduated and moved out of town. My most recent relationship was with a manic-depressive that had left me shaken emotionally.
I had hit the end of my rope. I had always tried to go out with girls that I thought could potentially be marriage material, but I had constantly selected wrong. I ended up putting an ad in a local newspaper's personal section. It basically said I was looking for a summer romance only (since I was moving in October after graduation). I put it in the newspaper in June. I got 2 responses. One turned out to be my wife. It took a couple of dates before we knew for sure, but we were engaged within a month and married within a year (I was 25, she was 22). We have been together for 13 years now.
I know many people that didn't meet the person they were to marry until they started working. Yes, in college there are many women your age and position, but there is a good chance that many are not ready for marriage (too young, too career focused). Just like you, they are wanting to work in their chosen profession and this might require moving. I would just graduate, move to where you are going to work and then start to network (via clubs, societies, church, online dating). You will be surprised how easy it really is compared to college (at least from what my friends tell me since I was still in college when I met my wife).
