تقدير معدل العائد من التعليم الجامعي في الجزائر بواسطة دالة الكسب المنسرية

Abstract EN

This study aims to measure and evaluate the economic rate of return to higher education in Algeria.

For this purpose, we collected cross-sectional data on income, years of education and experience of 171 workers as a sample from Adrar city.

The used model was the extended mincerian earning equation.

This model was estimated using Ridge Regression to solve the multicollinearity problem.

The results showed that the economic rate of return to higher education in Algeria reached 8.4%, which is low compared with the world average (19%), as it is lower than the regional rates, which amounted to 27.8% in sub- Saharan Africa, 18.8% in Asia and 11.6% in OECD countries.
