abstract: 'To what extent does higher education promote labour market participation

  for disabled people in school-to-work transitions and early career

  trajectories? This article argues that the effect of higher education on

  labour market outcomes for disabled people must be studied in

  correlation to gender. Intersectional theory warns against the

  generalisability of the female and male experiences, and predicts that

  disability may influence sexism, and that gender may influence

  disableism. Norwegian full-population register data on recipients of

  disability benefits are used to explore the effect of higher education

  on three labour market outcomes for men and women with disabilities.

  Contrary to common intersectionality expectations, the results show that

  men experience more extreme employment disadvantages related to their

  disabilities than women. Higher education has a stronger effect on

  participation for disabled women than for disabled men. However, gender

  differences in participation are smaller for people with disabilities

  than for the general population.'
