Abstract: The professional integration of higher education students is a problem for all contemporary societies, including the Romanian one. The surplus of graduates, the diplomas’ devaluation, the opportunities’ inequality and the unequal distribution of labour market’s posts are just a few determinant factors, which make the individual to adopt a variety of strategies to get a job.This research is particularly interested in the integration process on labour markets of sociology graduates in Romanian academic system, taking in consideration the case of sociology graduates from the Lucian Blaga University of Sibiu.The main objective is to understand all mechanisms of social, economic, cultural and familiar order, susceptible in influencing the individuals when they are searching a job.The instruments used in this research are based on questionnaire survey and interview. I used these to have an overview of the situation both quantitatively and qualitatively and for a better understanding of the professional integration process. I used the purposeful sample. The results of this research are expected to be able to capture the professional integration process of graduates in sociology from the Lucian Blaga University by identifying some of the factors that influence this process.
