Abstract

Summary The development of the European higher education system, within the frame of the Bologna process, requires that higher education be more and more integrated with the wider economic strategies (Lisbon objectives) and that employability be taken into account by the study programmes. Higher education institutions are invited not only to answer to the needs of the national labour markets but also to incorporate into their perspectives the European one. The Italian university reform provides for a first triennial cycle with educational and training purposes that give graduates an immediate access to the labour market. The labour market requires, on the other hand, graduates to have not only a theoretical education, but also professional competences. This paper aims to build cognitive maps of the study programmes in Statistics and rank the competences required by the job market to graduates in Statistics. We apply for that various methods of multivariate and textual analysis.
