Must have completed PPHA 31102 Statistics for Data Analysis II or equivalent to enroll. In this class, we begin by exploring standard models of discrimination in the labor markets. We then introduce more modern theories of discrimination in the labor market. After presenting these models, we explore racial, ethnic, and sex differences in labor market outcomes. We then show how the empirical literature attempts to detect the presence of labor market discrimination. Discussion session attendance is required for this course.
