Abstract

This paper has mainly made an analysis of the situation of undergraduates' structural unemployment: on one hand,the supply of the undergraduates is bigger than the demand for them,and is beyond the demand brought by the economic growth;on the other hand,during the system reform of economy and industry restructuring,there is great job vacancy owing to undergraduates' own qualification and skills,which produces structural unemployment and leads to the rate rise of their unemployment.It has pointed out as well the main causes of structural unemployment: the major setting and the courses setting in higher education are not reasonable,the qualification structure of the undergraduates is backward,the number of undergraduate interviewees increases,the recruiting condition of the enterprises rises,the job expectation is too high,and there is regional gap and urban-rural difference.It has proposed the basic countermeasures to solve the problem of undergraduates' structural unemployment,by way of reexamining the enrollment expansion policy in higher education,adjusting the training levels and major setting,structuring proper knowledge structure and ability,enhancing employment instruction,keeping smooth the employment channels and self employment,actively organizing and conducting the program of undergraduates' volunteer service to the western region,and so on.
