随着下一代大学生准备进入高等教育机构，学院和大学面临着大幅削减预算和提高财政效率和学生毕业率的国家期望。更加重视改进吸引新生和留住已入学学生的方法。院校应研究过程中每一阶段的特点，包括投入、进行中和产出，以便更好地吸引学生并使学生具备能力，满足雇主的期望。考虑到这些目标，本文探讨了目前对“Z世代”（定义为1996年至2012年出生的人）特征的研究，以及雇主对这些技术敏锐的后千禧一代的期望。提出了一个模型和建议，以帮助高等教育的努力，吸引，准备和留住学生为他们未来的职业生涯。
As the next generation of college students prepare to embark on institutions of higher education, colleges and universities are faced with significant budget cuts and state expectations for increased fiscal efficiencies and student graduation rates. A greater emphasis is being placed on improving methods for attracting new students and retaining those who are already enrolled. Institutions should examine characteristics of each phase of the process, including input, in process and output, in order to better attract and equip students to meet employer expectations. With these objectives in mind, this article examines current research on the characteristics of “Generation Z”—defined as individuals born between 1996 and 2012—as well as the employers’ expectations of these technologically astute PostMillennials. A model and recommendations are proposed to aid higher education efforts in attracting, preparing and retaining students for their future careers.
