A Comparative Analysis of Transitions from Education to Work in Europe (CATEWE)

Project Directors Prof. Dr. Dres. h.c. Walter Müller Project Staff Prof. Dr. Markus Gangl EU-TSER-funded 1997 – 2001

Research question/goal:

CATEWE aims at analysing the transition from education to work in a comparative European perspective. This entails developing a more satisfactory framework for understanding transitions in different European systems and to use this framework to analyse the factors affecting success and failure in education/training outcomes and labour market integration. A major focus of the project will be the institutional embeddedness of these transition processes, thus enhancing comparative knowledge on the operation of different linkages between the education and training system and the labour market. The research will have a dynamic perspective, analysing changes in transition processes over time and their relationship to changes in institutional and labour market conditions.
