We examine the impact of the competitive “STEM track choice” — a defining institutional feature of a number of national education systems — on gender gaps in STEM majors and college access. Many national education systems require high school students to make a largely irreversible,...

This paper uses newly available Chinese micro data to estimate the return to college education for late 20th century China when allowing for heterogeneous returns among individuals selecting into schooling based on these differences. We use recently developed semiparametric methods to identify...

This paper uses a computational general equilibrium model to analyze the impact of public school finance regimes on rates of private school attendance. It is shown that, when viewed in such a general equilibrium context, state intervention in locally financed systems can have somewhat unexpected...
