Abstract

In the European Union, the reform of higher education institutions represented by the Bologna Process places its central focus on creating student and employee mobility, making education systems more flexible and turning higher education output in a direction that meets labour market demands. The present paper examines the labour market position of graduating students in a Hungarian higher education institution. The empirical research, based on questionnaires, introduces the employee groups that can be found in today’s Hungary, specifically in the case of fresh graduates and describes the main characteristics of these clusters. The goal was to find an answer to how much higher education institutions prepare students for the world of work and how the graduates evaluate the usability of the acquired knowledge. The research described in the present studies has already been repeated and current plans include the regular completion of similar surveys in the future. The results and findings of the research may serve as a basis for comparing the opportunities of graduate students leaving Bologna–type training programs and the efficiency of the present ones, as well as the consequences of changes.
