Master Students at Gothenburg University and the Swedish Labour Market.

      Аннотация: Higher education has become more globalized and international students are increasingly faced with financial pressures due to changes in welfare states. As a student, working part-time is the only practical way to ease the economic limitations of life. In this study, the human rights approach is used to establish the satisfaction of international students with the Swedish labour market compared to their Swedish counterparts. In order to achieve this goal, the study aimed at assessing the involvement of international and Swedish students in paid work during their studies; to find out the kind of jobs both international and Swedish students at Gothenburg University engage in while studying; and to investigate the level of satisfaction with Swedish labour market among both international and Swedish students at Gothenburg University. It was hypothesized that: most international students at Gothenburg University are engaged in paid work; most international students at Gothenburg University engage in blue-collar jobs; and most of the international students at Gothenburg are less satisfied with Swedish labour market.
