Change in the workplace is inevitable, intensified by the rapid development of global markets and demand for highly skilled and adaptable employees. One response to this demand is for higher degree students to immerse in workplace experiences aligned to their course discipline to build their employability. In consideration of higher education and…

Sagal Ahmed; Lara Grollo; Daniel Czech – Journal of Teaching and Learning for Graduate Employability, 2024
Growing concerns about the employability of science graduates has led most Australian higher education providers to incorporate work-integrated learning (WIL) into their science curricula. Project-based learning (PjBL) is a student-centred approach to learning that focuses on the application of discipline specific skills and knowledge in…

Karen Young; Kelly Miller; Sharon La Fontaine; Stuart Palmer; Malcolm Campbell – Journal of Teaching and Learning for Graduate Employability, 2024
Work integrated learning (WIL), particularly placement-based WIL (P-WIL), has gained momentum in Higher Education over the last decade as an educational strategy for enhancing student employability. However, there is very limited guidance on effective ways to embed and scaffold WIL assessments across courses (degree programs). We present the…

Waliu Mulero Adegbite; Crystal Hoole – Journal of Teaching and Learning for Graduate Employability, 2024
Higher education providers have redefined their focus to include work-integrated learning (WIL) as an alternative way to prepare graduates for professional and future employment. Although WIL was designed to enhance graduates' work readiness, there is little evidence that the program supports the development of behavioural and employability…

Grooters, Saskia; Zaal, Emma; Ongena, Yfke; Gerkema, Menno – Journal of Teaching and Learning for Graduate Employability, 2023
Career development of Science students seems dependent on more than disciplinary education, such as the nature and focus of career preparation. In this study we compare graduate outcomes of science students at the University of Groningen, completing two master-level program streams with different focal points, by using career progress surveys from…

Rowland, Susan; Blundell, Daniel – Journal of Teaching and Learning for Graduate Employability, 2021
Australian mathematics and science students have low participation in WIL, posing implications for student employability. To better understand this problem, an examination of the industry-placement and coursework-incorporated WIL offered across the Faculty of Science at a large research-intensive university was undertaken. The aim of the study was…

Hardin-Ramanan, Sarita; Gopee, Shafiiq; Rowtho, Vikash; Charoux, Odylle – Journal of Teaching and Learning for Graduate Employability, 2020
Characterised by strong human capital dependency, Small Island Development States (SIDS) such as Mauritius depend largely on work-ready graduates to boost their economy. Yet, Graduate Work Readiness (GWR) and graduate unemployment feature prominently on the Mauritian government agenda. This paper investigates the previously unexplored issue of GWR…

In response to government, industry, student and central University calls for initiatives to enhance graduate employability as a means for improved employment outcomes, a faculty within an Australian university formulated a five-year Work Integrated Learning (WIL) strategy (2015-2019). The Faculty goal was to re-new, develop, implement and…

Thompson, David W. – Journal of Teaching and Learning for Graduate Employability, 2016
Much of the research into higher education and its role in work-based learning (WBL), and especially in supporting undergraduate students on placements, has focussed on longer term internships and sandwich courses. Research has also focussed on subject areas that have traditionally been associated with the above; for example, Business, Health, and…
