At present I am involved in a project studying prolonged and successfull degree earning in higher education and initial VET. It is a national project financed by Ministry of Education in Finland. The first phase of the project is based on data collected by Statistics Finland. We focus on students who have been admitted to universities in 2001 or to polytechnics in 2003 or initial VET in 2004 and try and find explanations for the differentiating educational pathways by comparing groups of students, by field and institution.
