Carlos Díaz

I am an Associate Professor and Chair of the Department of Economics at Universidad Alberto Hurtado (Santiago de Chile).

I am also an Associate Researcher at the Centro de Estudios Justicia & Sociedad (Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile) and the Centro Interdisciplinar de Políticas Públicas (Universidad Alberto Hurtado).

I have been in academia since 2018. Before joining Universidad Alberto Hurtado, I served as Associate Professor and Chair of the Department of Social Sciences at Universidad Católica del Uruguay until 2023. I earned a PhD in Economics from the Maxwell School of Syracuse University.

My research interests lie in crime, urban economics, applied methods, and network analysis.
