This research analyses the relationship between gender separate education and economic growth for the case of Mauritius, one of the fasting nation in Africa. Using a multivariate dynamic estimation technique to account for dynamic and feedback effects in the educationgrowth link for the period 1960-2010, it is established that that both female and male education are important ingredients in explaining growth. They are interestingly shown to have nearly the same productivity level. Further analysis suggests that bi-causality exist between female/male education and economic growth. Indirect effects via capital stock accumulation, a proxy for investment, are also reported.
