Abstrak: Disparitas Gender dalam Tingkat Pengembalian Investasi Pendidikan di Jawa Barat. Investasi yang dilakukan seseorang akan membawa sejumlah manfaat yang kembali pada dirinya sendiri maupun pada lingkungan sekitar. Kembalinya manfaat pada individu yang melakukan investasi pendidikan sering disebut juga tingkat pengembalian investasi pendidikan.

Model yang digunakan adalah model persamaan pendapatan Mincer. Penelitian ini menggunakan data dari SAKERNAS dan diolah menggunakan teknik analisis regresi linier berganda. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa tingkat pendidikan, potensi pengalaman kerja, potensi pengalaman kerja kuadrat dan jenis kelamin berpengaruh terhadap pendapatan. Semakin tinggi tingkat pendidikan maka tingkat pengembalian investasi pendidikan yang diterima pun semakin besar.

Tenaga kerja perempuan menerima tingkat pengembalian investasi pendidikan lebih tinggi dibanding laki-laki, kecuali pada tingkat pendidikan Diploma.
