Economics of Migration 2400-ENSM017A
The envisaged thematic scope of theses prepared during the seminar is both macro- and micro-level. Macro (and local) level subjects are expected to revolve around the theoretical and empirical relationships between immigration and the economies (in particular, labor markets) of receiving European Union countries, as well as emigration and the economies (in particular, labor markets) of sending EU members states. The micro level approach is expected to concentrate on the economic determinants of migration and economic consequences of migration (individual and household).
The proposed thesis methodology will contain a literature review, accompanied by an empirical (statistical, econometric) analysis of data.
