Applying a financial assets approach, the returns and earnings risk of investments into different types of human capital are analyzed. Even though the returns from investing in human capital are extensively studied, little is known about the properties of the returns to different types of human capital within a given educational path. Using information from the German Micro Census, the risk and returns to around 70 fields of education and differentiate between vocational and academic education is estimated. Fields of education are defined that are efficient investment goods, i.e. high returns at a given level of risk, and fields that are chosen for other (non-monetary) reasons. Furthermore, we fields of education are ranked by their return per unit of risk and find that university education is not always superior to other educational paths.
