Abstract	The purpose of this article is to discuss the relationship between educational expansion and the labour market. After describing quantitative growth in higher education and some overall trends in the Norwegian economy, we will argue that the policy of expanding the capacity of higher education is being used as a buffer against youth unemployment. Even if the policy of expansion may be effective in repressing acute unemployment problems, it is not clear whether it is an accordance with the long-term needs of the economy. Survey data on the transition from higher education to work will be presented to throw light on changes in the labour market for graduates. Finally, we will discuss whether a worsening labour market for graduates is due to changes in the demand structure for educated manpower, or whether it is a result of the expansion of higher education.
