Twenty-four students, undergraduate and graduate, and five faculty members in the Economics department presented their original research at the Eastern Economic Association (EEA) annual conference, one of the major conferences for professional economists in the United States. The four sessions sponsored by Pace University at the conference were organized by Assistant Professor Eric Osborne, PhD, and included research on topics in labor economics, health economics, public economics, and savings/financial markets.
In these collaborative student-faculty sessions, Professor Gregory Colman, PhD presented his work, “Youth E-cigarette use, Underage Access and FDA Compliance”; Associate Professor Veronika Dolar, PhD, presented, “The Impact of Income Inequality on Sport Achievement: Cross-National Analysis of Winter Olympic Games”; Lecturer Kier Hanratty, PhD, presented, “The Effect of Tax Caps on School Quality and Home Prices”; Assistant Professor Eric Osborne, PhD, presented “Covid-19 School and Child Care Center Closures and Female Labor Force Participation”; and Professor and Chair Anna Shostya, PhD, presented “Improving Economic Performance and Social Well-being Metrics.”
The participation of students and faculty at the EEA conference is a testament to the longstanding, quality student-faculty research and experiential learning opportunities offered by the department.
