- How human capital affects the economy (Micro and Macro)
- Production function of education
We examine these in the context of India, with its institutional constraints. The course will highlight modern tools of analyses to address important academic and policy questions in the context of education in India. We will focus more on the empirics, with the theory in the background. Students will be exposed to data sets on India and assignments will be based on these.
