中文摘要

<h3>摘要</h3>我们研究本地人对高等教育的需求如何响应一项放宽瑞士外国工人就业限制的改革。该政策变化导致跨境通勤进入瑞士边境附近地区的人数急剧增加。我们发现,在受影响的通勤区,以应用型学科为重点的大学入学人数上升,且这一增长由具有职业教育背景的本地人推动。入学人数的上升主要出现在非STEM领域,这些领域培养的技能在国家间较不易转移。我们表明,入学结果与高等教育非STEM学位工资溢价的上升相一致。

Abstract

<h3>Abstract</h3> We investigate how natives’ demand for tertiary education responds to a reform that relaxed employment restrictions for foreign workers in Switzerland. The policy change led to a sharp increase in cross-border commuting into Swiss areas close to the border. We find that enrollment in universities with a focus on applied studies rises in affected commuting zones, and this increase is driven by natives with a vocational background. Enrollment rises mostly in non-STEM fields that foster skills less transferable across countries. We show that enrollment results are consistent with a rising wage premium for tertiary non-STEM degrees.
