This paper examines, firstly, the relationship between education and income of workers, and secondly, the relationship between training and employment in the labor market in Mexico. The results show that the degrees that have the highest salaries are those related to the exact sciences, and those which are more likely to be hired are those related to education, and finally, it is observed that the areas of health, education, and economic administration, are highly correlated with employment and positive insertion in the labor market.
