Unit Director. PhD in Economics and expert in labour economics.
The Labour Market Research and Analysis Unit was created to generate scientific knowledge about a rapidly changing world of work. It therefore seeks to connect the university with companies, organizations and professionals, to foster continuous dialogue.
Our mission is to obtain and provide relevant and timely information on labour demand and on requirements in terms of competencies and lifelong learning in different sectors and workplaces, also taking into account regional differences.
Based on this information and the development of digital tools that can use this information, we seek to improve the careers of students and alumni and offer courses that suit the needs of individuals and companies.
