Abstract	"The present thesis examines higher-education non-completion in Germany at the individual level, focusing on the following two guiding research questions: 1. How do pre-tertiary educational pathways affect higher-education non-completion in Germany? 2. Are higher-education dropouts worse off in terms of their first labour market outcomes compared to upper-secondary education leavers with additional formal qualifications, such as higher-education or vocational training credentials? Thus this dissertation pays special attention to the impact of prior pathways to higher education, including vocational training and labour market experiences, on higher-education dropout. Furthermore, it compares the importance of formal qualifications and macro-level labour market conditions on the first labour market outcomes of higher-education dropouts vs. other education leavers. For the analyses datasets from the National Education Panel Study (NEPS) are used. The results of this work shows that field-specific pre-tertiary experiences are important factors for explaining higher-education non-completion in Germany. Furthermore, higher-education dropouts can benefit from pre-tertiary vocational qualifications when entering the labour market." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku).
