Course summary
Economics research at Sussex is aimed at improving people’s lives, both locally and globally. Most of our research is applied and policy-oriented. It draws on the latest empirical and experimental methods. We tackle problems that are challenging for policy-makers, and we also contribute to key academic debate. We welcome research proposals in applied economics in areas such as:
- international trade and trade policy
- poverty and development
- labour, health and education
- environment and energy
- quantitative economic history.
- economic theory, behaviour and experiments
