内容説明

In a nation where 40-50% of graduates emerging from higher education are arts students, the debate is how the country can best prepare them for work within the European Community; and, in so doing, help them extend their skills to contribute to the development of the United Kingdom. In a carefully crafted text, Eggins presents views of industrialists from a broad spectrum on the employment of arts graduates. It gives the views of students on their expectations of employment, and presents research carried out on arts graduates and their employment, and on transferable skills, drawing on international perspectives. In addition, it highlights views on what institutions are doing to meet students needs. The contributors show how industry partnerships can work together to best equip undergraduates and enable them to develop their full potential.
