MS in Applied Economics – Meet Professor Arman Khachiyan

Monday, January 13, 2025 at 12:00 PM until 1:00 PMPacific Standard Time UTC -08:00

Meet Professor Arman Khachiyan, faculty of the MS in Applied Economics (MSAE) program at this interactive information session. Professor Khachiyan studies the populations most exposed to aggregate industrial transitions, such as climate adaptation and automation. He uses data science methods, unconventional data sources, and leading methods in causal identification to inform current policy issues within these topics. Arman teaches in both the Undergraduate and Master's  Economics programs on topics including microeconomic principles, applied econometrics, and spatial economics.

Beyond academia, Arman has worked in the federal government to study how policy should respond to employment dynamics. He has also developed an appreciation for the variety of applications of economics through professional roles in non-profit and tech organizations.

The MSAE program combines economics training with practical skills in data analytics. Our students learn the economics of platforms, auctions, pricing, reputations, and business strategy at the same time as they acquire the tools of econometrics, causal inference, experimental design, and machine learning. 

Join this information session to learn more about the transformative experience through our MSAE program.
