杰出毕业生教育收益中的“一流大学效应”——基于全球万家企业高管数据的量化研究

The World First Class University Effects on the Returns to Education for the Prominent Graduates—— Quantitative Study on the Data of Top Executives from 10000 Companies Worldwide

通过收集全球万家企业年报和官方网站中的高管信息,以38670名企业高管作为杰出毕业生的代表样本,运用履历分析法和计量分析法对企业高管的一流大学背景与个人收入之间的关系展开讨论。研究发现,与拥有普通大学学位的企业高管相比,拥有一流大学学位或知名大学学位对企业高管收入具有显著的正向影响,企业高管教育收益中存在"一流大学效应"。对于拥有学士和硕士学位的企业高管、发展中国家企业高管以及收入相对位置较低的企业高管而言,这种"一流大学效应"将会更加明显。实证结果表明,当前我国建设世界一流大学具有十分重要的意义和价值。

Based on the annual reports and official websites of 10,000 companies worldwide, the study focuses on the relationship between world first class university degrees and top executives＇ compensation in a sample of 38,670 cases. We used curriculum vitae and economic quantitative analysis. Compared to the ubiquitous university degrees, world first class university degrees and world-known university degrees have positive effects on promoting top executives＇ compensation. The analysis indicate that the world first class university effect does exist in returns to education for top executives. Specifically, the world first class university effect plays an important role among bachelor and master degree holders, top executives from developing countries, and those with relatively low compensation through quantile regression. The empirical results show that it is of great significance to build world first class universities for us currently.
