| Research Abstract |
First, we analyze the wage determinants and career paths of fresh graduates of a certain business school in Japan. Our study uses a data set drawn from a questionnaire survey. The results indicated that if the pre-MBA work experience corresponds to the field of study, there is a high probability that the post-MBA work experience will also correspond to the field of study. In this case, there is a strong probability that the wages will increase. Second, we investigate the wage premium that graduate degree holders receive by means of a questionnaire survey conducted in December 2009. We could observe substantial wage differentials among workers with different academic backgrounds. In particular, a master's degree clearly provided a certain level of advantage in determining wages.
