Abstract	Chapter 2 provides the theoretical and conceptual background. It focuses on general theories on education, labour market and careers with an emphasis on the theory of human capital, matching theory, and the macroeconomic perspective on education and job matching. It also describes the concepts of employability, professional career and career success. The theoretical and conceptual frameworks are followed by a subchapter on designing a model of graduates' career success which is also applied to the professional domain sections in Chapters 5 and 6. These professional domains are: business and economics, education and teaching studies, engineering, medicine, science, and sociology and political science. Chapter 3 describes the methodology adopted in the DEHEMS project. The chapter is divided into two parts: a description of the quantitative analysis and a description of the qualitative analysis. The quantitative analysis was carried out using three different data sources on graduates and their professional careers: OECD Education Statistics, the Labour Force Survey which was chiefly used when analysing graduates' labour market situation, and the REFLEX/HEGESCO data set. The second part of the chapter - a description of the qualitative analysis - presents the collecting, conducting and analysis of in-depth semi-structured interviews made among individuals from HE institutions and other stakeholders (employers, trade unions, policy-makers etc.). The main purpose of Chapter 4 is to provide the results on the determinants of graduates' labour market success across the different study domains with the goal of ascertaining similarities and differences among them. The analysis defines the dependent and explanatory variables that were determined on the basis of theoretical considerations and the data availability and sets out the results of job satisfaction and other labour market success factors from different perspectives. Chapter 5 aims to further portray and elaborate the six professional domains identified through the theoretical and conceptual frameworks (Chapter 2). Each subchapter is devoted to one professional domain and describes study programmes and graduates, study provisions and conditions (including teaching modes, practical training etc.) and the transition to employment on the basis of national reports from the countries included in the DEHEMS project. A special emphasis in the chapter is given to the analysis of the interviews conducted among HE management representatives about graduates' professional careers. Chapter 6 complements the issues raised in previous chapters, especially in the interviews with HE management (see Chapter 5). The chapter provides a qualitative analysis of the interviews among higher education stakeholders - HE policy-makers, employers, trade unions and student organisations - on the role of higher education institutions in preparing graduates for work and the utilisation of hard evidence of graduates' employability. The main conclusions are outlined in the final chapter. (HoF/text adopted).
