Course # 44302 Section Number 1 Day(s) Tu- Th Time(s) 9:30am-10:50am Term Fall 2024 Specialization International Policy Course Instructor Gregory Lane Syllabus Syllabus 8/23/24 In this course we will explore standard models that form the core of labor economics including labor supply, labor demand, job search models, wage setting, discrimination, and migration. For each topic we will then examine empirical applications of these models with a focus on middle and low-income countries. We will discuss how these traditional models are useful, or not, in understanding labor market outcomes in these settings and how they can be expanded to better capture relevant features of labor markets outside high-income countries.
