// DISSERTATION PROJECT


Social Origin, Education and Labour Market Outcomes: Does Further Education make a Difference?
 

The project deals with the question of how and to what extent investments in education beyond the originally acquired level influence social inequalities in the labour market. The project examines not only if these investments in education contribute to an unequal distribution of labour market returns, but also addresses the question of how new investments in education influence the relationship between social origin and labour market outcomes at the macro-level.
