Sélection à l’entrée des universités et emploi : une comparaison entre le Royaume-Uni et la France

Jean-Jacques Paul, Jake Murdoch and Julien Zanzala

Abstracts

The aim of this article is to see if in France and the United Kingdom, graduates from the more selective department have better employment prospects than those from others departments, even when individual characteristics of the graduates are controlled for. Logit models were tested using two employment indicators (the probability of being unemployed and the probability of occupying a high-grade occupation), for each of the three subjects groups (Social Sciences, Languages and Science). The models show that the selectivity of British University departmentshas greater effect on graduate employment prospects than that of French University departments.
