Abstract
Students upgraded from college to university are the outstanding group among college students. Their study status, future employability and career development direction are different from those of college students or undergraduates, which deserves particular concern. Based on The Survey on the Development Status of Students Upgraded from College to University in Beijing in 2014, this study analyzes students’ learning engagement, employability as well as the relationship between the two. It shows that, on the whole, students upgraded from college to university learn positively and their learning motivation presents the dual motivations for achieving success and avoiding failure (An, Cheng, & Sun, 2009). Their learning attitude and objectives to improve abilities play a key role in their employability.
