IMPACT OF HIGHER EDUCATION ON ECONOMIC GROWTH: A VECTOR ERROR CORRECTION
ANALYSIS IN MALAWI

Gift Mbewe


ABSTRACT


This study examined the impact of higher education on economic growth in Malawi
from 1995 to 2021. The study contributes to existing literature by providing
more recent evidence and as well contributes to the debate on whether higher
education has a positive or negative impact on economic growth in a developing
country like Malawi. Empirical studies have so far yielded inconclusive results.
The time series variables were tested to find out its order of integration using
Dickey Fuller and the series were all non-stationary at level but became
stationary after first difference. The study employed cointegration and evidence
of cointegration of higher education and economic growth was established.
However, Vector Error Correction Model estimates showed that there is negative
long run relationship between higher education and economic growth. Thus, the
government and other relevant education stakeholders should strive to increase
enrollment in tertiary institutions so that it yields significant impact on
economic output.
