摘要

Abstract

This study empirically investigates the differences in the returns to education across different tiers of universities in higher education using data from the nationwide household survey CGSS2021

using the classic Mincer income function model in the field of economics. The empirical results show that the positive effect of higher education university rank on the personal rate of return to education is not obvious

compared with ordinary universities

but the top universities in the country have strong tier spanning

and there are differences in the impact of different grades of higher education schools on the rate of return to education.
