  bibo_abstract:
  - Educational authorities in Taiwan have been expanding the higher education sector
    since the 1990s to meet the demands of economic transformation and to meet cultural
    expectations. Consequently, the higher education system of Taiwan has evolved
    from an elite system to a universal one. The rapid expansion of higher education
    is also characterized by salient features such as the increase of higher degrees,
    an enlarged private sector, and diminishing numbers of junior college institutions
    and students. This study explores whether these changes at the national level
    have brought challenges to the labour market. Our findings reveal that intensified
    competition for employment caused by the increased number of college graduates
    has incurred extra monetary cost and uncertain wage prospects at the individual
    level. Disadvantaged students might suffer the most from the massification in
    light of increased financial investments and low(er) rates of return to higher
    education.@eng
