Impact of Rural-Urban Migration on Educational Status Case Study of Selected Large and Medium Scale Industries

Authors(1) :-Dr. Khalid Anwar

Educational level of individuals is an important parameter influencing migration motivation and mobility pattern. The role of education in the determination of migration patterns can be viewed in two different ways. The effects of the school system itself, the content of education process, and the increased aspirations and broader horizons this can produce. They can be examined in order to assess the impact of education on inducing migration. Alternatively, the importance of educational qualifications as a screening device for job selection allows us to classify labour migrants by their educational status, and to investigate variations in the distribution of education of those educated in different levels, within the migrant groups.
