Richard J. Murnane; John B. Willett; Aubrey McDonough; John P. Papay; Ann Mantil – AERA Open, 2024
The labor-market payoff to workers with associate degrees in healthcare and STEM occupations is very high in Massachusetts. We examine whether this induced a growing proportion of students in MA community colleges (MACCs) to earn an associate degree (AD) in one of these fields. We do this by using multinomial logit analysis to compare trends…
