Subject

The Bavarian Graduate Survey (BAS) has been conducted annually since 2014 on behalf of the Bavarian universities. The ongoing service project comprises regular surveys of an examination year approximately one year after graduation. Current applied research questions from the IHF are integrated as required and possible.

Research questions

The BAS questions focus on the quality management of the participating universities as well as on current issues of educational policy, e.g. assessment of study conditions, assessment of subject-specific and interdisciplinary competences, transitions to further educational phases, duration of studies and reasons for exceeding the standard period of study, participation in internships and stays abroad during studies, inclination to do a doctorate, challenges when starting a career as well as first professional activities and regional retention.
