In 1948 he received a Hillel Foundation scholarship for exceptional survivors and a U.S. visa to resume his studies at Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia. Credit earned from placement examinations at Emory University enabled him to graduate in two years, after which he went to the University of Chicago to study economics; except for visiting appointments at the University of Chicago and a Fulbright Fellowship in Sweden, Mincer's career centered on New York City; He completed his doctoral studies at Columbia University (1957), and taught at the City College of New York until joining the Columbia University faculty in 1959; other institutions that played a major role in his professional life were the New York office of the National Bureau of Economic Research and the Labor Workshop at Columbia University ( (Forschungsinstitut zur Zukunft der Arbeit website, July 7, 2015:) )
