The seminar welcomed guest speaker Dr. Nguyen Thanh Tung, a lecturer at the Faculty of Economics, National Economics University. From the E-PhD Program's academic committee, the event was attended by Associate Professor Dr. Bach Ngoc Thang from the Institute for Sustainable Development, Dr. Nguyen Hoang Linh from the Faculty of Marketing, doctoral students from both English and Vietnamese programs, and other interested delegates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Nguyen Hoang Linh opened the seminar by welcoming and thanking the guest speaker, faculty members, doctoral students, and all interested participants who attended the session. She then introduced the speaker, Dr. Nguyen Thanh Tung, who holds a Master's degree in Public Policy (Public Economics) from Hitotsubashi University. He received his Ph.D. in Economics from Hitotsubashi University (Tokyo, Japan) in June 2023. His research interests encompass labor economics, market frictions, and development economics. His research focuses on labor market regulations, particularly minimum wages in developing countries. He previously served as an economic researcher at the Vietnam Institute for Economic and Policy Research (VEPR) under Vietnam National University (Hanoi) from 2014 to 2017.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the seminar, Dr. Nguyen Thanh Tung addressed the wage gap between genders. The speaker's research utilized diverse datasets to analyze this trend at the district, enterprise, and individual levels. The study emphasized the crucial role of capital deepening in the manufacturing sector as a primary driver. The research findings revealed that the decline in female wages relative to male wages stems from reduced demand for female labor rather than supply-side factors. At the district level, the research results demonstrated heterogeneous impacts across districts with different stages of economic development. In high-income districts, capital deepening primarily affects the gender wage gap through hourly wages. Conversely, in low-income districts, where labor mobility is constrained, capital deepening profoundly influences the gender wage gap through both working hours and hourly wages. Young women with low educational attainment are particularly vulnerable to the impacts of capital deepening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Concluding the seminar, on behalf of the E-PhD Program, Associate Professor Dr. Bach Ngoc Thang expressed gratitude to the speaker for taking the time to engage in discussion and share valuable research experience. The seminar provided substantial knowledge and insights for the doctoral students and interested participants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This scientific seminar represents a regular activity within the series of seminars that are part of the E-PhD Program at the National Economics University over recent years. The objective of this seminar series is to serve doctoral students, young researchers, and faculty members interested in research fields including economics, business, management, and other interdisciplinary areas within the social sciences. This seminar series provides a platform for faculty and researchers to exchange ideas, connect, and collaborate on research endeavors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
