Postgraduate Certificate in Labor and Market Economics.

Labor and market economics refers to the study of how wages and the quantity of labor are determined in an economy, and how these factors in turn affect the supply and demand for goods and services in the marketplace.

In labor economics, aspects such as the labor market, wage differentials between different occupations and levels of education, and how employers make decisions about wages and the hiring of employees are analyzed. Government policies that affect the labor market, such as minimum wage laws or free trade policies, are also studied.

In market economics, you study how prices of goods and services are determined through supply and demand. How much of a good is produced and consumed depends on several factors, such as price, resource availability, and consumer tastes and preferences. Government policies that affect the market, such as antitrust laws or tax policies, are also studied.

In general, labor and market economics focuses on how the decisions of individuals, firms, and governments affect the functioning of the market and overall economic welfare.

It is worth noting that labor and market economics are related in important ways. Wages and employment are a key component of the market and, in turn, the level of employment and wage can affect the supply and demand for goods and services in the market. Labor and market economics work together to understand how these relationships work and how they can be influenced or regulated to ensure a fair and efficient functioning of the market.

This program of study prepares students to work in a wide variety of fields, including public policy analysis, assessment of local and global economies, business consulting and academic research. Ultimately, students who complete an undergraduate course in labor and market economics will be equipped with the tools necessary to analyze the labor market and economy through a variety of lenses and help inform decision-making and policy in different sectors.
