The primary objective of the course is to equip students with the analytical tools required for
examining individual and institutional behaviour underpinning labour market phenomena and its
impact on the wellbeing of society. A key thrust of this course is to expose students to
methodological approaches in conducting rigorous labour market research to inform policies in
developing countries. At the end of the course the student should be able to appreciate the scope
of the labour market, identify possible factors underlying labour market outcomes, and evaluate
public policy impacts on labour and social outcomes
