Summary
In this work, we analyze data provided by official records on graduates of Sardinian universities in the period 1991–2001 with the aim of obtaining contextually relevant information for the realisation of a survey on the transition from university to the job market. Examining data from the survey, we looked in particular at certain aspects of the conditions of graduates in search of employment, their postgraduate education and the opportunities for entering the labour market. We also present some initial results regarding the emigration of graduates and the evaluation of human capital.
This paper is the result of the joint ideas and efforts of the three authors. M. Porcu was responsible for the final editing of Sections 2.1, 3 and 5, G. Puggioni for Sections 1 and 6, whereas N. Tedesco was responsible for the other Sections.
