Abstract
Currently, in the UK we have knowledge about doctoral holders’ employability and destinations (“doctoral leavers”) from official HESA data. This source assures to know where PhDs bred in the UK work, provided they remain in the UK or go to work in the EU. There is still a dearth of knowledge about those who end to work outside the EU/UK. Among these latter target, arguably the Chinese nationals are the lion share. The statistical relevance of this target of doctoral leavers, and the still poor knowledge of doctoral employability, both concur to the necessity to shed more light in this phenomenon. We are working on building an original dataset from public repositories (Ethos British Library + ORCID) to understand career trajectories of people who got a PhD in the UK some 10 years ago. The final step of this project is sampling some of these leavers. We shall send them a pilot questionnaire to understand, retrospectively, the importance of having attained a PhD in the UK and the respective skills and abilities they developed during doctoral years and afterwards.
