Summary

To investigate the transition from University to work, and indirectly assess the effectiveness of university education, time analysis can play a key role. The period that elapses between graduation and finding work is usually influenced by various factors. In this work, an analysis of such determinants is performed by means of non-parametric and parametric survival models.

This paper is the result of the joint research of the two authors. M. Porcu was responsible for the final editing of Sections 1, 2 and 4, whereas N. Tedesco was responsible for Section 3. The authors wish to thank the anonymous referees for their precious suggestions.
