Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this study, we construct a model which explains a change in demand for education, considering an individual preference for the higher education. We suppose that the individual preference for education depends on the average level of education in a society and changes drastically at some level. We consider a possibility that diffusion of education brings about discontinuous increase in demand for education, and examine the optimal educational policies in dynamic setting.
