Zhengren Zhu

Welcome! I am a postdoctoral associate at the Cowles Foundation for Research in Economics at Yale, and I will be joining Vassar College as an Assistant Professor in the spring semester of 2025.

I received my PhD in Economics from Yale University in 2021 and worked as a management consultant at McKinsey's New York office till recently.

My primary field of research is Labor Economics, with a particular focus on the Economics of Education and Human Capital Development in general.

I live with my wife, our son, and two cats in New York City.
