Abstract
The relationship between tertiary education and employment is an issue that concerns education providers, national education policy makers, industry operators and the undergraduates and their families. In this study, the education and employment relationship is studied from the aspect of the mismatch of acquired (AC) and required (RC) competencies of the electronic engineers in the electronic industry. The competencies were studied from the generic and subject specific aspects. Both qualitative and quantitative methodologies were used in this study.
