Edited by John Cullinan, Darragh Flannery
Paperback / softback
Description
This book brings together research relating to the economics of higher education in Ireland and presents evidence that will help support policy decision making.
It provides an analysis of prominent issues within the higher education sector from an economic viewpoint, discussing the relevant theory and offering an empirical analysis.
The book examines three broad themes with a specific focus on issues related to undergraduate education: participation and preferences, progression and outcomes, and benefits and financing.
Each chapter presents an accessible, non-specialist analysis of the topic of interest, making it relevant to a wider audience.
In doing so, the book provides an important addition to our current knowledge and understanding of higher education in Ireland from an economic perspective.
Key chapters discuss the factors influencing institution choices, student retention in higher education, and policy debates surrounding student finance.
The book will serve as a useful and up-to-date resource for policymakers, researchers, academics and students across a range of disciplines, both in Ireland and internationally.
