Abstract
This article tests the hypothesis of the existence of a sorting effect on the remuneration of graduates in a Brazilian public university, combining identifiable data of graduates and records of the formal labor market in 2017. The estimation of remuneration equations and the decomposition of Oaxaca allow to observe higher remunerations for the graduates in the institution, in comparison to other workers of similar characteristics and occupations. The results are compatible with the hypothesis of a sorting effect, in which the institution's diploma reveals innate characteristics of workers to employers.
期刊介绍：
The purpose of the International Journal of Educational Development is to foster critical debate about the role that education plays in development. IJED seeks both to develop new theoretical insights into the education-development relationship and new understandings of the extent and nature of educational change in diverse settings. It stresses the importance of understanding the interplay of local, national, regional and global contexts and dynamics in shaping education and development. Orthodox notions of development as being about growth, industrialisation or poverty reduction are increasingly questioned. There are competing accounts that stress the human dimensions of development.
