- This 232-page book, comprising 9 chapters, is based on a three-year empirical study on graduate work. The research included over a hundred interviews with workers, employers and stakeholders, and a state-of-the-art literature review on the graduate labour market. The book offers four substantial empirical case studies on graduate occupations that are individually equivalent to a single output. It advances our knowledge and understanding of the relationship between Higher Education and work, presenting novel and critical arguments on the work that graduates perform as well as, graduate skills, graduate careers, and the role of educational credentials at work.
