Undergraduate and MSc Research Supervision
Applied micro research areas which I'm interested in and which I am happy to supervise MSc Dissertations in (students should have preferably taken G013, Steve Machin's course on Topics in Labour Economics). If you have a research idea which you would like to discuss please contact me well in advance via email: p dot chaudhury at ucl dot ac dot uk
Education: I am interested in pretty much everything related to education ranging from the class size effect to the effect of educational policies on income distribution.
Gender/motherhood wage and other gaps: Do women (or mothers) earn less or make specific choices because they are discriminated against? Or is there a compensating differential story at play? How do women's employment patterns differ from men's?
Effects of employer benefits on employment/wages etc: How does the makeup of the total compensation package affect the makeup of the workplace? How is this structure determined, and how does it affect other things like inequality, tenure, etc.
Peer Effects: Studies using data from the workplace, education or other spheres of life which show the effects of colleagues on each other's productivity or behaviour
Immigration: Broad range of topics ranging from the effect of policies on immigration to the effect of immigration on an economy.
