Jian Zou (pronounced: Jee-en Zoh)

PhD candidate, Department of Economics, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign
I will join the Cornell ILR School as a postdoctoral associate (labor/education) in 2024 July.

I am an applied microeconomist who specializes in labor and education, working intensively on policy-relevant research. 

My research methodologically integrates the examination of large administrative and survey data sets with sharp causal designs that build on (quasi-)random assignment/policy variations.
