Advance HE will publish a literature review on employability, 2016-21, in September 2021 which aims to identify specific impact and evidence in relation to embedding employability within higher education, predominantly since the most recent Advance HE literature review from 2016.
Over the spring and summer of 2021 a research team from Oxford Brookes University undertook a systematic literature review of the extensive material on higher education employability over the last five years. Adopting an explicitly international and multi-disciplinary focus, the team engaged with a wide range of literature across the broad field of employability learning.
This short podcast series offers a preview of some of the dominant themes emerging from the review including measuring and measures of employability, entrepreneurship and work-integrated learning and embedding employability learning in the curriculum.
In this third podcast, Dr Roger Dalrymple, Associate Dean: Student Outcomes at Oxford Brookes University and Dr Andrea Macrae, Principal Lecturer, Stylistics and Student Experience at Oxford Brookes University are joined by Dr Maia Pal, Senior Lecturer in International Relations, Oxford Brookes University to discuss the aspects of the literature review focusing on critiques of employability.
