Prior work has suggested that students are expected to acquirebreadth in professional skills and depth in technical skills, developing T-shaped competencies fortheir careers [10]. These expectations suggest that the combination of professional skills andtechnical skills fosters students’ competitiveness in the job market and increases theiremployability. Employability is defined as “having a set of skills, knowledge, understanding andpersonal attributes that make a person more likely to choose and secure occupations

Forthese reasons, we consider the perception of faculties to be an influential factor to be studied forthis research, as they are the central point of contact and decision-making for any graduatestudent. They are also a major support system to graduate students and play a pivotal role insteering their academic and professional journey.
