University graduates' vocational integration

The Italian National Institute of Statistics carries out the sample survey on university graduates’ vocational integration by interviewing a sample of graduates who attained the university degree four years before. The survey, aiming at detecting graduates’ employment conditions about four years after graduation, is part of the survey-system on the study-to-work-transition, which also includes the survey on doctorate holders’ vocational integration and the one on the upper secondary school graduates’ transition to university and labor market. A large number of information is gathered through the survey: educational experience; access to the labor market; job search; family situation, referring both to the family of origin and to the current one at the time of the interview.
