A quarterly publication of AQU Catalunya
Francesc Xavier Grau, president of AQU Catalunya
AQU Catalunya became the first European quality agency to award the first Joint European Degree Labels, a seal promoted by the European Commission that recognises joint programmes developed by international university alliances.
AQU Catalunya has published the results of its employment outcomes study for bachelor’s, master’s and doctoral degree holders, based on over 48,000 responses from graduates of the Catalan Higher Education System.
With the Catalan population having grown by 32% over the last 25 years – and with 20% of citizens now aged 65 or older – the healthcare system is facing a rise in chronic conditions and comorbidities.
The proportion of women and men enrolled on a degree programme may influence perceptions of gender mainstreaming, particularly in relation to aspects such as the presence of women role models and the type of academic content.
Beyond the overall results, which reflect an increasingly positive perception of the university experience, the survey provides a valuable tool for identifying the strengths and areas for improvement of individual degree programmes.
The AQU Catalunya report on graduate employment outcomes once again provides us with solid evidence regarding the value generated by the Catalan Higher Education System.
