About me
Description:
Iman Dadgar is a Ph.D. candidate in economics (expected defense: spring of 2022).
Research:
His Ph.D. thesis focuses on the economics of education and health. The first chapter analyzes the effects on educational outcomes of a time-table reform in Swedish schools that allowed some schools more autonomy in determining their subject-specific time table. The second chapter investigates the causal effect of students' ordinal rank in school on both short- and long-term outcomes. Chapters 3 and 4 are from a collaboration with Thor Nordström that focuses on analyzing the association between macroeconomic fluctuations and mortality.
