Faculty
Faculty research projects are wide-ranging and include work on fiscal and monetary policy in the United States, decentralization in river basins, labor market developments in China, the empirical relationship between urbanization and economic growth, public policy and health, and international finance and trade. Faculty members bring this variety of intellectual interests into their classrooms.
The department cochairs for the 2021-2022 academic year are Professor Daniel Riera-Crichton and Professor Paul Shea.
