Resum

El fomento de la empleabilidad y la adquisición de competencias se han convertido en una de las prioridades de la educación superior para los países pertenecientes al Espacio Europeo de Educación Superior. Este artículo tiene el objetivo de evaluar el impacto de las competencias genéricas y otras variables sociodemográficas, académicas y laborales en la probabilidad de tener un empleo de los titulados universitarios en España. La fuente de datos utilizada es la encuesta de 2015 del Observatorio de Empleabilidad y Empleo Universitarios. Entre los resultados obtenidos destaca que las competencias más relevantes son las sistémicas y que algunas variables, como el sexo o el ciclo de los estudios cursados, condicionan notablemente dicha probabilidad. De esta forma, se ofrece información que puede contribuir a mejorar la adecuación de los planes de estudio en las universidades y a aplicar políticas públicas más efectivas para facilitar el acceso al empleo.
