CONCLUSIONS

Dorel MANITIU (AlmaLaurea) 15

some hints and further research ideas and opportunities In the Italian context is (still??) fruitful:

  • pursue Higher Education to get a job
  • following an internship

for two main reasons:

  • higher employment rate
  • better wages

Other research ideas/opportunities:

  • integration with other European initiatives (e.g. “Graduates Advancement and

Development of University Capacity in Albania – GRADUA” www.graduaproject.com, project in implementation phase, co-funded by European Commission – Erasmus+ Programme)

  • expand the analysis considering different aspects of graduates background.
  • social democratic tradition of the country? Social cohesion? (see Rehbien Boike

publications), etc.

  • inclusion and equality of opportunity should become principles
