The income of new university graduated studentsThe aim of this paper is enhancing current evidence about factors that impact the income of university graduates who have joined the labor market recently. For that purpose, it uses data about incomes obtained by graduates from a non traditional private university, considering a wide range of degrees in different areas. Using multilevel models, main findings show the effect of variables related to disciplines themselves affecting the income of graduates who studied those disciplines. In this sense, it is possible to see a wage punishment for graduates of female dominated disciplines- which is observable in the case of both women and men-, a positive effect of selectivity, beyond academic records of graduates, and also a wage recognition to programs that take more time to be completed, although students get their degree much later.
