Postgraduate education and job mismatch in Italy: Does migration help?
2023
Doctoral graduates represent the pinnacle of education. While the importance of increasing their number has been recognised by the Italian government and there has been a huge increase in the number of publicly funded PhD scholarships, doctoral graduates still struggle in the labour market to find employment commensurate with their skills and competencies. It is against this backdrop that the role of migration becomes crucial. Exploiting Italian microdata at the census level, this study aims to investigate how human capital migration, occurring at different ‘times’ of individual's life and across different regions, could mitigate the potential education–job mismatch, which is measured here …
La collaboration avec la recherche universitaire vue de l’entreprise. Quelques résultats d’enquêtes dans les secteurs des technologies optoélectroniq…
2011
Analysant les caractéristiques de la demande de connaissances externes des entreprises en fonction de leurs régimes d’innovation, l’article s’intéresse plus particulièrement au rôle donné à la recherche universitaire dans les stratégies d’innovation des entreprises. Les résultats tirés d'enquêtes auprès d’entreprises britanniques et françaises, développant des composants optoélectroniques, mettent en évidence l’existence de deux catégories de recherche : la R-D sur financement propre qui est liée aux objectifs à court terme, et la R-D à moyen et long terme qui dépend du financement externe. La participation de la recherche universitaire à la recherche à court terme de l’entreprise prend la …
Flexible latent trait aggregation to analyze employability after the Ph.D. in Italy
2015
The analysis of satisfaction, employability and economic perspectives after the Ph.D. in Italy has not received adequate attention in the past, especially in terms of comparison among universities. To analyze these aspects, in this paper we consider data from the survey ‘Statistica in TEma di Laureati e LAvoro’ on doctors who achieved the title on 2007, 2008 and 2009 [CILEA, Laureati STELLA, indagine occupazionale post-dottorato, dottori di ricerca 2007–2008, Tech. Rep., CILEA, Segrate, 2010; CILEA,Laureati STELLA, indagine occupazionale post-dottorato, dottori di ricerca 2008–2009, Tech. Rep., CILEA, Segrate, 2011]. To deal with the complex, multidimensional nature of the concept, we propo…

The Determinants of Delayed Entrance into the Academic Career : The Case of France
2008
08009 - 15 p.; The recruitment of young PhD graduates in the academic sector is linked to a strong uncertainty on their potential teaching and research productivity. When giving tenureto a PhD graduate, employers -universities or research institutions in France- attempt to reduce the asymmetric information on the research abilities of the applicant. However, because of the nature of the scientific work and the way it is rewarded, it is difficult to assessthe absolute value of much of the work of PhD graduates in the short term. So, in order to recruit the best PhD graduates for permanent jobs, public employers select from the signals sent by the applicant in their curriculum vitae. Our pape…
Un modèle théorique pour éclairer des histoires d’engagement dans la vulgarisation
2017
International audience; En France, la vulgarisation est inscrite dans les missions des établissements publics scientifiques et techniques. Elle est également une mission du métier de chercheur. Et pourtant, certains vulgarisent et d'autres non. Pourquoi ? Quelles sont les raisons invoquées par les uns ou les autres ; quels sont les contextes, incitations, barrières, croyances ou histoires qui peuvent expliquer qu'un chercheur s'engage ou non dans la vulgarisation ? Nous nous intéressons particulièrement aux facteurs qui pourraient influencer l'engagement de doctorants dans cette pratique de communication. Pour cela, nous utilisons une théorie phare de la psychologie sociale : la théorie du …

It runs in the family?
2022
AbstractFamily background has been shown to be a strong determinant of educational attainment, yet relatively little is known about the role that family background plays in PhD attainment or in the selection into academic careers. In this study, we estimate sibling correlations from Finnish full population register data to comprehensively assess the importance of family background in selection into academia. Our results show that family background accounts for over a third of the overall variation in becoming a PhD and subsequently an academic — a share which is up to four times as large as implied by conventional comparisons by parental education. However, we did not find evidence that fam…
