ABSTRACT

More selective universities are presumably better in quality and expected to provide better labour market outcomes for their graduates – returns premia. However, various empirical applications have found that part of it should be attributed to selectivity. Using the data on recent higher education graduates' entry salaries with a fuzzy regression discontinuity design, this study reveals no apparent difference in the returns one gains by attending more selective and relatively better-funded national universities as opposed to other public HEIs in Kazakhstan, at least during the first year in employment, which may potentially call for a reconsideration of the associated policies.

大学选择性和回报溢价:来自哈萨克斯坦的证据

摘要

更具选择性的大学可能在质量上更好,并有望为其毕业生提供更好的劳动力市场成果——回报溢价。然而,各种经验应用发现其中一部分应该归因于选择性。使用具有模糊回归不连续设计的近期高等教育毕业生的入学工资数据,本研究表明,与哈萨克斯坦的其他公立高等教育机构相比,就读更具选择性和资金相对较好的国立大学所获得的回报没​​有明显差异,在至少在就业的第一年,这可能需要重新考虑相关政策。
