Produktbeschreibung
Traditionally, one role of Higher Education has been
to supply the labour market with appropriately
educated and skilled graduates. However, the market
has become increasingly competitive and there are
concerns that the growing number of highly qualified
graduates is not met by an increased demand for
these skill levels. Consequently, there is a growing
need for students to become aware of relevant labour
market developments and take ownership of their
future career. The book outlines one study
investigating the extent to which undergraduate
students are aware of the skills sought by graduate
employers and use the available career service
facilities. The research also addresses whether
career planning and awareness are influenced by the
year of study or the type of degree (generalised or
specialised). The work helps to determine whether
students prepared for the graduate labour market.
The book is of particular relevance to those with an
interest in career planning and employability.
