Universities across Europe want to improve how they track graduates' career progression, says the European University Association (EUA) in Brussels. In Tracking Learners' and Graduates' Progression Paths, published on 13 September, the EUA finds that if institutions follow career outcomes, they can take steps to improve them, such as revising curricula or establishing strategies to improve communication skills. But of 23 institutions surveyed, 77% did not systematically track PhD-holders' careers. Study co-author Michael Gaebel, head of higher-education policy at the EUA, says institutions should create a student database and team up to standardize data collection.
