I investigate the effect of studying in English in a non-English speaking country, Italy, on international labor market mobility. I exploit the introduction of master's degrees offered in English by a university while students are already enrolled in a bachelor's program as an instrument for studying in English. I find that English-taught degrees increase an individual's probability of working abroad by 11.3 percentage points. The results are driven by students outside of the top-10 universities in Italy and students from universities in less-developed regions of the country.

英语大学学位对国际劳动力流动的影响

我调查了在非英语国家意大利学习英语对国际劳动力市场流动的影响。我利用大学开设的英语硕士学位课程，而学生已经报名参加了学士学位课程，以此作为学习英语的工具。我发现，英语授课的学位可使个人在国外工作的可能性增加11.3个百分点。成绩是由意大利排名前10位的大学以外的学生和该国欠发达地区的大学的学生推动的。
