Ece Yagman

I am a PhD candidate in Applied Economics at the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (expected graduation spring 2026). 

My primary fields are applied and development economics. I specialize in running program evaluations with a focus on education, socio-emotional skills, and gender gaps.

I have led field work for a randomized controlled trial in Spanish secondary schools and previously worked on behavioral and policy projects with the World Bank.
