Economics Faculty Research

In addition to their teaching responsibilities, economics department faculty members also pursue active research agendas. This includes presenting their work at seminars and conferences and publishing their findings in economics journals and books. Faculty research areas include: Development, Econometrics, Economic History, Environmental, Health, Industrial Organization, International Trade, Labor, Macroeconomics, Public, and Sports.

The Department has close ties with AidData, the Schroeder Center for Health Policy, and the graduate Program in Public Policy which provide ample opportunities for faculty to engage in policy-oriented research.

The department also maintains three active seminar series: their faculty brownbag, their departmental seminar, and a development seminar series, joint with AidData.
