يهدف هذا البحث إلى دراسة أثر العمالة ذات التحصيل الجامعي فأكثر في معدل مشاركة كل من الذكور و الإناث في النشاط الاقتصادي. و ذلك من خلال تحليل واقع القوة العاملة بحسب النوع، و تحديداً قوة العمل الحاصلة على شهادات عالية، و من خلال تحديد حجم الفجوة الجندرية لمعدل المشاركة. مما يمكّن من دراسة الأثر المتوقع للمستوى التعليمي لقوة العمل من حملة الشهادة الجامعية فأكثر على معدل المشاركة في النشاط الاقتصادي، باستخدام الانحدار البسيط، الأمر الذي يساهم في تقديم صورة تساعد صانعي السياسات المتعلقة بالتعليم و سوق العمل. حيث أظهرت الدراسة الحالية انخفاضاً في نسبة مساهمة كل من الذكور و الإناث في النشاط الاقتصادي رغم نمو العمالة من حملة الشهادة جامعية فأكثر. و خلص البحث إلى مجموعة من النتائج, أهمها: يؤثر مستوى التعليم الجامعي فأكثر للإناث سلباً على معدل مشاركتهن في النشاط الاقتصادي. يؤثر مستوى التعليم الجامعي فأكثر للذكور سلباً على معدل مشاركتهم في النشاط الاقتصادي.
The purpose of this research is to study the effect of higher education employment on labour participation rate. This is done by analyzing the reality of the labour force, especially the reality of employment of people with university degrees as well as by defining the participation rate by gender in order to illustrate the gender gap. It also determines the impact of higher education on the labour force participation rate, using simple regression. Doing these two things helps in putting future economic policies. The study shows that there is a decrease in the whole labour participation rate during the period of study despite the rise of higher education employment. Using a descriptive analytical and statistical method, the research comes up with some important results: Higher education negatively affects the rate of female participation in economic activities. Higher education negatively affects the rate of male participation in economic activities.

Foreign direct investment FDI has been started to play a major role in supporting the
growth of the economies of developing countries since the eighties of the last century,
taking advantage of the rapid spread of information and communication tech
nology ICT
and the trend towards a market economy in most developing countries and trade
liberalization in them. These countries began to depend more on foreign direct investment
because of the great benefits that derive from it in terms of capital, employment and
increase in exports, or in terms of obtaining the modern technology which is necessary to
achieve the economic development.
In Syria, foreign direct investment flows started to increase since 2003 as a result of
the new directions of the Syrian government to open up to domestic and foreign private
sector, and reliance on the market economy.
The objective of this research is to shed light on the reality of foreign direct
investment in Syria, and to clarify the impact of this investment on economic growth
during the period 2000-2010. It has reached to find out that this effect was weak.
This study aims to find the best indicators representing higher education
components using the method of multivariate statistical analysis represented in a manner
factor analysis, and create a mathematical model that connects the principal componen
ts
representing higher education and the rate of economic activity in Syria using multi- linear
regression analysis. A descriptive analytical approach is used in this study. The most
important results obtained state that the principal components that belong to higher studies
and intermediate institutes have a positive impact on the rate of economic activity of
manpower, whereas principal components that belong to students of state universities and
higher institutes have a negative impact on the rate of economic activity.
This research studies inflation and its reasons in the Syrian
economy using (1990-2010) data, also it studies imported inflation and its reflects on inflation rates, considering that the imported inflation is one of the major drivers of inflation in
transitioning economies.
We find that the imported inflation has a significant effect on
inflation rate, and it leads – beside endogenous factors – to high
inflation rates. Hence, there must be coordination among economic policies to achieve the balance between money market and commodities market, in addition to the optimal use of the potential sources, thus less import.
This research aims to shed light on the reality of population growth and its
components and highlighting the characteristics and changes in the educational structure of
the population in Syria during the period studied. This study also aims at know
ing the
position occupied by the population in Syria on the steps of the educational ladder, through
the analysis of the percentages for each stage of educational levels.
One of the most distinctive results that have been reached, that there is a direct
relation yet weak and insignificant statistically between the changes of the population
growth rate and those of the educational structure in Syria. Accordingly, those changes of
the educational system are related to other changes than the ones of the population growth
rate such as the education, government expenditure on education and higher education
assimilation policies ,etc.
This research investigates the main factors (domestic and foreign) affecting inflation rate in Syria.
Choosing the factors is based on the analysis of the major economic hypothesis concerning inflation determinants such as: excess purchasing power,
cost push inflation, foreign inflation.
By using OLS method, we find long run function, and it shows that the excess purchasing power has no significant effect on inflation rate.
The error correction model shows that high cost rate has the biggest effect on inflation rate in the short run.
