Abstract | This volume attempts to bring together important contributions about the economics of higher education for the use of educators and others concerned with the formulation of educational policy. Part I of the volume concerns the demands of students for higher education and of the Nation for high-talent manpower. Part II presents the fundamentals of a theory of investment in people through education. It includes consideration of essential differences and similarities between investment in people and investment in physical capital, an assessment of the educational stock of the labor force, both in terms of original cost and in terms of replacement, and estimates of the volume of resources allocated to education and the return of this investment. Part III deals with the financing of higher education and covers a wide range of sources of funds, public and private. Part IV describes briefly the ongoing research in the economics of higher education and outlines the range of issues that require still further study. (Author) |
