UE's Learning outcomes
At the end of the course and through a specific analysis of the labour market, the students will be able to analyse labour supply from either quantitative (participation) and qualitative (human capital) perspectives, labour demand and the role played by wages and other labour costs. The students will also be able to tackle numerous and simultaneous interrelations that appear between households and firms on this market, together with their effects in terms of wages and employment. From an individual point of view, the course will also allow them to apprehend decision processes in terms of education, training or migration.
