摘要:The objective of this paper is to investigate the factors influencing the probability that a Ph.D. holder in Greece will work in the academic sector, as well as the prob-ability of his or her choosing employment in various sectors of industry and oc-cupational categories. Probit/multinomial logit models are employed using the 2001 Census data. The empirical results indicate that being young, married, hav-ing a Ph.D. in Natural Sciences and/or in Engineering, granted by a Greek univer-sity, increases the probability of being employed in the academic sector. Fields of study and the wage rate are the variables that exercise the strongest impact on the predicted probability of choosing employment in various sectors of industry and occupational categories.
