The Path to Tenure - In Discussion with Victoria Vanasco
type: Article
title: The Path to Tenure - In Discussion with Victoria Vanasco
description: CN: You received tenure in 2023 at CREI, having worked there for around five years previously as a Junior Researcher. When did you decide that a tenured position was a career goal? VV: Most research positions are of the tenure-track form, but this is not a promise of tenure, and typically if you do not get tenure by a given date you have to leave. For most people working in Academia, tenure is a career goal, as without it we have to leave the institution where we are (and sometimes the city or country), when our tenure is denied. Ideally, you get tenure at a place you like. I was lucky to get tenure at a place I REALLY like. The question was then ¨when to go up for tenure¨, and when professional activities started demanding a lot of my time (referee reports, participation in scientific committees, conference organization, seminar invitations, etc), I felt it was time. "Fate was involved in the decision, as I did not get some jobs I would have found very attractive." Victoria Vanasco CN: You grew up in Argentina, before looking abroad to continue your academic journey. Was this a tough step to make? VV: It was hard to decide whether I wanted to pursue the PhD abroad vs look for a good job locally. Fate was involved in the decision, as I did not get some jobs I would have found very attractive. I decided to take it step by step. First, what do I need to do now to apply for a PhD in a year? A Masters in Economics, so I started with that. In the meantime, I got a job as a Junior Professional Associate at the World Bank in the Buenos Aires office. This position lasted only two years, as the World Bank encourages juniors to pursue their academic endeavours. That really helped. By the time I was done with my Masters and with my two years at the World Bank I was excited about pursuing a PhD. It was also hard to leave Argentina, but once again, step by step. I could always come back if I did not like it. I liked it so much, I never came back. CN: What factors influenced your…

Introducing a Handbook for Academic Advisors in a University Economics Department
type: Article
title: Introducing a Handbook for Academic Advisors in a University Economics Department
description: Examples of academic advising from the UK and Europe A common theme across European and UK universities is a proactive approach to academic advising for student success, though delivery varies due to cultural and institutional differences. In Europe, institutions like Tubingen and Mannheim (Germany) offer students specialised advisory support that is tailored to the academic structures of their respective institution. In addition, many European universities provide walk-in or scheduled appointments with specialised study advisors to ensure timely support. At Tubingen School of Business and Economics, academic counsellors guide students on course selection, exam preparation and career planning. Mannheim’s economics department follows a similar structure, focusing on key programme requirements for academic success. In the Netherlands, the Utrecht School of Economics employs ‘study advisors’ to assist with, for example, study planning and academic skills development. While German and Dutch universities often follow structured advisory methods, UK universities emphasise personalised one-to-one support through assigned advisors (Jennings, 2021). In the UK, universities like Oxford Brookes, Bath and Warwick, assign each student an academic advisor for academic progress and personal development support. Academic support can include guidance on module selection, academic performance and progression, while non-academic support involves referrals to student services, like the wellbeing team. Many universities encourage regular advisor meetings to ensure continued support throughout the academic year – the University of Manchester is one such example. Common challenges Despite differing approaches between cultures, countries and each institution, academic interventions are often required in all systems to enhance student experience. The frequency and nature of these interventions can present challenges to the academic advisor on the best way to address students’ needs. Many ac…
disambiguating description: Introduction Academic advising refers to the process where appointed members of staff provide academic guidance, information signposting and other relevant non-academic forms of support to students to help promote their success and improve their overall higher education experience (Medernach, 2018). Its role has long been recognised as crucial for supporting students, especially those from under-represented minorities (Smith et al, 2009; Young-Jones et al, 2013). While practices across the UK and Europe appear similar in their foundations, the diverse nature of student cohorts suggests some different institutional priorities. At the university of Exeter, taking into account these different approaches, we introduced a handbook for academic advisors in the Economics Department. Here we share our experience.

Why I Didn’t Use AI for my PhD Application

title: Why I Didn’t Use AI for my PhD Application
description: However, as a member of INOMICS’ editorial board, I found that AI tools back then lacked the ability to write a thorough, in-depth, and engaging article about economics topics such as how corruption can affect economic growth or the pros and cons of focusing on “mesoeconomics”. We decided to not use AI tools in our article-writing or editing process. Similarly, I decided not to use AI tools at all when I was applying for PhD programs. That’s not to say that I think these models can’t ever be helpful – I’ve found that AI LLM models are very helpful for one thing in particular: generating ideas. However, I’m serious about becoming a PhD economist, and was determined to submit the very best of my own writing for my applications. Further, there’s always a concern that using AI tools would be considered a form of plagiarism. I think not using AI tools at all for my application was the right choice, and I think it’ll be the right choice for you, too. What’s more, even if AI models become incredibly capable “economists” on their own, I think eschewing them will still be the right choice for your application process. Without further ado, let’s explore the reasons why. First: hallucination adds extra work, and relying on AI delays you from building your own expertise AI models are known to hallucinate. That means, when using them for an important purpose, checking the AI’s output for accuracy is critically important – but that adds work that I didn’t feel was worth it for my application. I felt that the effort I’d have needed to spend studying each aspect of the AI model’s output (to ensure it was accurate) would have been inefficient. Instead, I spent time reading the economics literature myself, seeing what interested me, and reading about how other economists in the space structured their research. This was very helpful, especially as I began to outline my own phd research proposal. Think of it this way: if you want to be a successful PhD student, you’ll need to understan…
disambiguating description: AI tools have become widespread since news of ChatGPT-3.5 prompted me, in early 2023, to make an OpenAI account. I remember sitting in a coffee shop, sipping on a latte, and holding a half-dozen “conversations” with the newly released model. I asked it a series of math questions. I asked it about politics and about poetry. I asked it to write me a short story. I even asked it questions about niche topics like Settlers of Catan to see if it “understood” strategy in the context of a game. And, of course, I asked it about economics.

Stefanie Stantcheva named Clark Medalist 2025
type: NewsArticle
title: Stefanie Stantcheva named Clark Medalist 2025
description: Stantcheva is a Professor of Political Economy at Harvard University, and an NBER Research Fellow. Stantcheva was awarded the John Bates Clark Medal for her work on how tax policy influences innovation, uncovering that tax policies significantly impact innovators' behaviors. Her studies, such as "Taxation and Innovation in the 20th Century," conducted with co-authors, reveal high elasticities in innovation in response to changes in tax policies. Another key contribution is her work on optimal tax policy, as demonstrated in "Optimal Taxation and Human Capital Policies over the Life Cycle," where she proposes income-contingent education loans as a means to incentivize human capital investment. She has utilized a variety of tools to explore the interplay between government taxation and private behavior, including mechanism design to analyze optimal tax policy in dynamic scenarios, empirical studies on the impact of taxes and subsidies on innovators' decisions, and surveys and experiments to examine public perceptions of redistribution and tax policies. Moreover, Stantcheva has pioneered the use of surveys and experiments to gauge public understanding and preferences on various policy issues, including tax policy, redistribution, and climate change. Through her innovative methodologies, she has shed light on the factors influencing support for redistribution and views on tax policies. Stantcheva's comprehensive body of work has provided valuable insights for informing policy debates on tax system design, offering fresh perspectives on traditional public finance questions. Her groundbreaking research has not only advanced the understanding of optimal tax policies but has also deepened our knowledge of how individuals perceive key policy issues. The John Bates Clark Medal is awarded annually by the American Economic Association to an economist under the age of forty, employed at a US institution, who is judged to have made the most significant contribution to economic tho…

Solow-Swan Model
type: CreativeWork
title: Solow-Swan Model
description: The Logic Underpinning the Basic Solow-Swan Model The logic underlying the model is straightforward. In the Solow-Swan economy, individuals have savings rates that yield an economy-wide average level of saving, s. Money not saved in each period is consumed. Meanwhile, savings are used to fuel investment I that grows the capital stock. There is a natural depreciation of the capital stock, denoted by ẟ, over time. For the purposes of the model, there is no foreign economy to trade with, so the Solow-Swan economy is a closed economy (or “in autarky”). With the model, it’s possible to assume the population and level of technology are growing, and possible to assume they are not. These facts come together to determine economic growth, Y. The exact specifics of this relationship depend on the functional form of the specific production function chosen. Generally, the more savings an economy has, the more capital stock and therefore economic output it can support. However, with more capital stock comes more depreciation. In per capita terms, there is a limit to how much growth the economy can sustain given its savings rate. The model predicts that the economy will trend towards a “steady-state” where the savings rate and the rate of depreciation offset one another such that the per capita amount of capital remains unchanged. In other words, while the overall economy can be growing in size, the population, depreciation, and (per capita) capital stock grow alongside it such that all individuals have a consistent amount of income in perpetuity. Figure 1 shows the basic Solow-Swan model graphically. Figure 1: the Solow-Swan model This graph depicts the general train of logic discussed above. The economy produces goods (here, capital k) according to a production function. This production grants individuals their income. Some part of people’s income is saved, and overall savings are depicted by the green curve sf(k). Depreciation and the “law of motion” (defined below) are hinted…
disambiguating description: The Solow-Swan model is an economic growth model that uses a production function (often Cobb-Douglas) to determine the long-term growth path of an economy. It further shows how the economy trends towards a steady state level of capital per capita, depending on the savings rate, and allows us to determine what the best possible savings rate would be. This cornerstone growth model is often taught in introductory macroeconomics courses, re-taught in-depth for advanced courses, and used as the basis of many other models of the economy, so it helps to get familiar with it.

title: Morris Davis appointed to Council of Economic Advisors as Chief Housing Economist
description: In his new role, Davis will provide guidance to president Trump on policies aimed at reducing housing costs and expanding housing availability. His expertise will be crucial in advising on strategies to increase housing supply and alleviate regulations that drive up housing costs. Davis expressed his honor in serving the country and his dedication to making housing affordable for all, adding: "My goal is to help the president make housing affordable for everyone." New Chairman Steve Miran told Rutgers Business School, where Davis has been employed since 2014, that “Morris will play a pivotal role as we work to build more homes and make housing affordable again for American families, helping to usher in President Trump’s economic Golden Age.” The Dean of Rutgers Business School, Lei Lei, in turn praised Davis and his role so far in influencing public policy: "Morris is a proven leader with innovative ideas that can positively affect real estate productivity and public policy today." Davis received his PhD in Economics from the University of Pennsylvania. He is noted for a much cited 2012 paper, which argued against subsidies for major US mortgage entities Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and for a cut in mortgage interest deductions. The latter is an approach that has also been proposed by president Trump. Davis further advocates, for example in a 2019 paper, for consideration of the current market when making policy changes that affect the cost of borrowing. The Council of Economic Advisers, consisting of approximately 45 members, has been funded by Congress since 1946 to offer research supporting the president in formulating economic policies. Davis's appointment will last until December 2025. Image Credit: Rutgers Business School

Stephen Miran appointed as Chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers under President Trump
type: NewsArticle
title: Stephen Miran appointed as Chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers under President Trump
description: Dr. Miran worked as a senior advisor in the Treasury Department in the first Trump Administration. He holds a PhD in economics from Harvard, and until his appointment at the CEA was a fellow at the Manhattan Institute in New York, and a senior strategist at Hudson Bay Capital Management, where he recently (November 2024) published a "User's Guide to Restructuring the Global Trading System". In this, he investigates and recommends how tariffs and other tools could be used by the US government. Miran highlights the effectiveness of tariffs on China from 2018-2019, emphasizing the negligible macroeconomic consequences and increased U.S. Treasury revenue. He suggests managing the strong dollar's impact on American manufacturing through policies aiming to improve burden sharing with trading partners. Miran also proposes negotiation tactics, including gradual tariff increases, forward guidance on policy, and tax cuts to counteract price competition for U.S. exporters. He further warns against retaliatory tariffs, stating the U.S. can withstand escalation better due to its strong consumer demand and robust markets. Trump's emphasis on American production and low taxes has been reiterated and confirmed through statements and policies in the first quarter of 2025. Miran's confirmation and imminent appointment is timely as these policies, including tariffs, come into effect in April 2025 on multiple imports from Mexico, Canada, China and the European Union.
