University Rectors (CRUI)sponsored by:
Presentation
The ongoing economic crisis continues to affect mainly young people, who are exposed, along with their families and the university system, to unprecedented pressure as concerns the quality of their educational choices, the fulfillment of their right to an education and the transmission of useful skills for inclusion in the labour market.
The annual conference is devoted to the presentation of the results of the 16th AlmaLaurea Survey on Graduates’ Profile, which highlights - by means of a data-base related to 230,000 graduates from 64 universities - opportunities and challenges for higher education in Italy.
On the same day all the documentation, broken down by university and degree programme, will be available on the AlmaLaurea website. This documentation will provide upper secondary school students with friendly guidance tools complementing AlmaDiploma and AlmaOrièntati services.
Enlightening in-depth analyses will be provided throughout the day, focusing on the soft skills acquired by the Italian graduates in university education and the positive effects that guidance initiatives targeting upper secondary education have on university students’ academic performance.
Experiences abroad during the university studies will be the focus of another in-depth analysis, which will throw light on the features and implications of such educational opportunities, that unfortunately involve only a minority of graduates. The results of a pilot survey on PhD earners’ profile, that is, those completing the third and highest level of university education, will also be presented.
The closing session will be devoted to the discussion of central issues related to the recent ANVUR Report on the Italian academic and research system.
