School-to-Work transition - Einzelansicht

The seminar deals with the transition from education to the labour market. In the first weekly classes, we will read and discuss the main theoretical approaches that connect education to labour market placement. Here, students are required to read the literature beforehand (and eventually respond to specific questions) and participate in group activities.
In the block session(s), students are required to present empirical studies that test the theoretical considerations.

 Course objectives:

- Understand the different ways in which education pays off in the labour market

- Group them into three main groups of theories 

- Identify how empirical studies have tested these theories

Seminar wird in Englisch gehalten.
