Teaching

During my time at the University of Illinois, I’ve had the pleasure to teach the following 3 courses:

• Econ 456: Economic Development and Migration (Undergraduate)
• Econ 519/590: Development and Growth Policy (Masters)
• Econ 550: Microeconomic Issues in Development Economics (Ph.D.)

Here you can find the Teaching Statement  from my Third Year Review from April 2023.

All course material can be found on https://canvas.illinois.edu/.  Please send me an email if you have questions regarding the course, or sign up for office hours by going to the ‘Contact’ tab.

This video gives a brief introduction of Econ 456, the upper level elective for undergraduate students.  And this video was included in a lecture on Migration and Risk by Prof. Mushfiq Mobarak that was part of a Ph.D. course organized by the Bureau for Research and Economic Analysis of Development and the International Growth Centre. 

Mentorship

In addition to working with a large number of undergraduate and Master’s students, I’ve had the privilege to advise and mentor many bright Ph.D. students at the University of Illinois. Here is a list of graduates with their initial placements:
