Abstract

Analysis of the 2016 RLMS-HSE survey materials regarding 30-39-year-old respondents with higher education, carried out separately - for part-time and full-time university graduates, reveals the degree of commonality and differences in their socio-demographic characteristics, educational path, employment status and his subjective assessments. Part-time students are older in age, among them the indicators are higher in the proportion of women, people from villages and settlements, people who are married and have children. They more often study in rural schools, more often graduate from 9, not 11 grades; more than half of them go to university for part-time learning after receiving secondary vocational education. Part-time graduates differ only very slightly from full-time graduates in the main indicators of labor activity: among them, the share of the employed is slightly higher and the share of the unemployed is lower; they are more likely to work in formally organized workplaces. Part-time graduates are somewhat less likely to occupy the status of professionals and, on the contrary, are somewhat more likely to de-qualify and find themselves in the positions of workers. Those who received part-time and full-time higher education demonstrate much more unity than differences in the subjective assessments of their work and its particular elements. The ideas of their place in certain social hierarchies among part-time graduates and full-time graduates are also very close
