About the course
Our cluster produces policy-relevant research that tackles important questions in areas such as education, child outcomes, household economics and development. The cluster includes about 10 members from the Department of Economics and several PhD students. We organise an AME seminar series (led by Emma Tominey), sessions on Publishing in Top Journals (led by Matthias Flueckiger), Research Grant Success (led by Jack Britton), a croissant meeting to speak informally about research (led by Simon Weber) and curry nights.
Since 2016 the Applied Microeconometrics cluster has also organised an annual international Workshop on Labour and Family Economics (WOLFE) taking place in York. WOLFE focuses on topics of family and labour economics which make a substantial contribution to important policy debates around the world. It is the combination of frontier econometric methods, combined with the pressing world problems which characterises the contribution of papers at each workshop.
