Abstract: Summary In this paper, we propose a methodology, based on the principal strata approach to causal inference, for assessing the relative effectiveness of two university study programmes with respect to the employment status of their graduates. The analysis relies on a parametric model fitted by maximum likelihood. In that context, we discuss some relevant modelling issues and the implications of the results for policy.
