Mismatches in the labor market for college graduates: Focusing on field-of-study choice

No 99, KDI Focus from Korea Development Institute (KDI)

Abstract: The intense major-occupation mismatch is attributed to difficulties in adjusting admission quotas within universities, insufficient labor-market information at the department level, and uniform timing of decisions on college majors. To cope with the rapidly changing technological and industrial landscapes, efforts are needed to make meaningful improvements in quota regulation, career education, and university-level curricula.
