Abstract

The study aimed to find out the relevance of higher education outcomes to the needs of the Palestinian labor market. The study used the descriptive analytical approach through describing and analyzing data on higher education and the Palestinian labor market during the period (2010-2018). The study found a number of results: a high unemployment rate among university graduates in Palestine, weak absorptive capacity of the Palestinian labor market, and the failure of Palestinian universities to adopt productive investment through undertaking productive projects. Based on the results of the study, the study recommended coordinating between the responsible authorities and studying the labor market and identifying its needs in order to accept students in the required majors in appropriate numbers. In addition, the study recommended coordinating with the private sector in order to provide job opportunities for university graduates according to the needs of the labor market.
