6 units


Prerequisites: None

Delivery Format: On-Campus

Description:
This course will examine the extent and causes of gender wage in equality. It will then consider public policies for addressing the wage gap.

We will also examine theories and analyses that are useful in the formulation and implementation of relevant policy.
