DESCRIPTION:We show that the expected real wages commanded by some higher-e
 ducation degrees decreased in absolute terms in France\, in the past two de
 cades\, and that this drop is not due to adverse selection. To study the r
 eturns to degrees and experience\, we assume the existence of a finite num
 ber of latent types and estimate a finite-mixture model. Each type has its 
 own log-wage equation\, experience-accumulation and education-choice equat
 ion. This allows us to decompose the treatment effects of education as an 
 average of type-dependent effects. We then show that some unobserved types
  experienced a real-wage drop while others benefited from an increase\, wi
 th the same degree. The observed “flattening” of returns to experience 
 is also heterogeneous. In the case of Master degrees\, the estimated distri
 bution of latent types indicates that student selection improved with time
 \, in spite of the fact that the number of graduates increased substantial
 ly. An excess supply of graduates might therefore be a likely explanation 
 for the devaluation of Master’s degrees.\\n\\nContact: Nicolas Clootens:
