Studies & Work

Since 1996 SEO Economic Research, under the authority of Elsevier, has mapped the employment situation for recently graduated higher educated people. In this research 20 thousand graduates from Dutch colleges and universities are questioned through by means of a written survey. The central question of this research is which study programme offers these graduates best opportunities on the job market at the moment. Hence the name: “Studies & Work”.
