Foreign language competences belong to the employers’ essential requirements set for workforce. The enhancement of acquired competences and the acquisition of new ones form a part of higher education. In the paper employability of the graduates of the Faculty of Biotechnology and Food Sciences in the Slovak University of Agriculture in Nitra on the European labour market has been analysed. The graduates completed their study in the years 2007-2011. A questionnaire was used to survey 300 graduates by the 30th June 2011, out of which 103 responded. The Faculty of Biotechnology and Food Sciences prepares professionals in the fields of biotechnology, food technology, applied biology, hygiene and food safety. Input data have been evaluated by the methods of analysis, synthesis and comparison. In relation to the mathematical-statistical methods used, the input data have been classified according to the qualitative and statistical characteristics and evaluated by the association tables and graphs. We have come to the conclusion that foreign language competences are actively used by 43% of the respondents in different sectors of national economy, and the dominant foreign language is English. Within half a year after graduation 74% of respondents who had taken part in student mobilities, and 48% of respondents who did not participate in them, found jobs on the labour market. The time of getting the first job is influenced not only by knowledge, working skills and other competencies but also by current job vacancies.

Nagroda Nobla z 2010 roku w dziedzinie ekonomii zwróciła uwagę ekonomistów na badania związane z rynkiem pracy i jego elastycznością. Metoda opracowana przez noblistów zmieniła nie tylko sposób opisu rynku pracy. Powiązane z nią narzędzia pozwalają na dostrzeżenie dziś pewnych negatywnych tendencji również na rynku pracy osób z niepełnosprawnością. Artykuł przedstawia perspektywę zastosowania modelu do wyjaśnienia zjawisk zachodzących na rynku pracy osób z niepełnosprawnością w Polsce w latach 2007–2011.
