This comprehensive book delves into the intricate dynamics of Chinese college students' mobility since the expansion of higher education. Utilizing a nationally representative data set, it offers a thorough examination of the characteristics of college graduates' mobility in both horizontal and vertical dimensions. The horizontal dimension encompasses various migration patterns, including college migration, employment migration, grassroots positions, capital migration, and homecoming migration. It sheds light on the changing directions and locations of college students as they navigate their educational and professional journeys.

On the other hand, the vertical dimension explores students' intergenerational occupational mobility and intergenerational regional mobility. By drawing upon theories in education and economics, the book provides a robust framework for empirically analyzing the diverse aspects of mobility, including its causes, economic and non-economic benefits, and its implications for China's higher education policies and the broader context of social and economic development.

Not only does this book provide valuable insights into China's higher education policies and their impact on the regional and intergenerational mobility decisions of college graduates over the past two decades, but it also holds significant relevance for other countries at similar stages of social and economic transformation. It serves as a valuable resource for students and scholars of education, economics, and East Asian studies, offering a comprehensive understanding of the complexities of student mobility. Moreover, it can assist policymakers in gaining a deeper comprehension of the characteristics of student mobility and the underlying factors that influence their choices, enabling them to develop effective policies that promote inclusive and sustainable development.
