【 摘 要 】

Society at large, both government and residents, invests in education, a process which is considered to reach its apex with a university qualification.Economically, education is typically seen to be both a private and public good, and so it is useful to determine the benefits to both the individual and society arising from this investment.This paper examines the economic contributions of university-educated Bahamians to society.Using information obtained from The College of The Bahamas and other official sources, the study demonstrates that having a populace with higher education has a beneficial impact upon the Bahamian economy.
