Does the labour market value field of study specific knowledge? An alignment score based approach
Using a sample of bachelor degree holders from the Canadian Census, this paper estimates the earnings premium that a university graduate receives from working in an occupation that requires knowledge that is related to their field of study. This is accomplished by developing an alignment score which measures the similarity between the knowledge requirements of an individual’s actual occupation, and the knowledge requirements of the occupations that their field of study trains individuals for. While controlling for field of study and occupation fixed effects, the results indicate that a one standard deviation improvement in the knowledge-alignment between one’s occupation and field of study produces an earnings premium of approximately 4.3%. This indicates that well-aligned graduates earn more than graduates from the same field of study who work in otherwise similar paying occupations that are less closely aligned with the field of study.
期刊介绍：
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
