This book examines the characteristics of Chinese college students'
mobility since the expansion of higher education by using a
nationally representative data set. It analyzes college graduates'
mobility from both horizontal and vertical dimensions. The
horizontal dimension shows college students' migration directions
and location changes, including migration for college, migration
for employment, migration for grassroots positions, migration away
from the capital, and migration back to their hometown. The
vertical dimension includes students' intergenerational
occupational mobility and intergenerational regional mobility.
Drawing on theories of education and economics, the book provides a
solid framework for empirically analyzing the characteristics,
causes, and economic and non-economic benefits of different forms
of mobility. This book not only offers insights into China's higher
education policies and their impact on the regional and
intergenerational mobility decisions of college graduates over the
past two decades, but also has important implications for countries
at similar stages of social and economic development. This book is
an excellent read for students and scholars of education,
economics, and East Asian studies. It can also help policymakers
understand the characteristics of students' mobility and the
underlying reasons for their choices, so that they can propose
effective policies in the future.
