Abstract: This paper investigates the different impacts of vocational schools and universities on regional development in China. To account for a possible two-way causality between education and economic development, a system of supply and demand equations is introduced. The results show that vocational education has higher impact on regional development than university education in China. Concerning the reverse causality, the paper finds that effect of regional development on university education is higher than its effect on vocational school education.
