Few would argue against the notion of higher education being committed to developing students’ employability – a notion that implies the capability to function productively in a complex, interconnected and continually evolving world. Some graduates will choose to work locally and perhaps individually, whereas others will collaborate in teams that are national or international in character. The subject(s) chosen for study necessarily influence the emphases given to aspects of employability – consider the different expectations of graduates from programmes in fine art, social science and medicine, for example. This book, importantly, invites readers to consider employability from the perspectives of students, teachers and the world beyond the academy, and to work with an approach appropriate to their particular circumstances.
