大学作为大熔炉:国际化的长期效应
University as a Melting Pot: Long-term Effects of Internationalization
摘要
This paper provides the first evidence on the impact of exposure to international students on the long-term outcomes of native students. I combine unique survey and administrative data from the Netherlands covering one million students across three decades and employ an across-cohort design. I find that exposure to international students leads natives to (i) form social ties with non-natives, (ii) hold more positive attitudes towards migration and learning about other cultures, and (iii) seek opportunities abroad. Notably, I find precisely estimated zero effects on employment, income, entrepreneurship, and the share of international co-workers up to 25 years after university entry.
中文摘要
本文首次提供了接触国际学生对本土学生长期结果影响的证据。我结合了荷兰覆盖三十年、涉及一百万学生的独特调查与行政数据,并采用跨队列设计。研究发现,接触国际学生使本土学生:(i)与非本土学生建立社会联系,(ii)对移民及了解其他文化持有更积极的态度,以及(iii)寻求海外机会。值得注意的是,在进入大学后的25年内,我发现对就业、收入、创业以及国际同事比例的影响精确估计为零。
