Economics 397EL - ST- Equity Lab

The Equity Lab course uses economic research and thinking to propose solutions to important social and economic equity problems, including inequality based on race, gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identity, and disabilities. To design those interventions, we will also draw on ideas about fairness, as well as data analysis, communication strategies, and policy methods. Some likely projects for our Equity Lab will include reparations for African Americans, differential taxation of urban and rural farms, and employment discrimination against transgender and nonbinary people, as well as other issues.

Open only to Econ/STPEC/ResEc/MgrEcon Primary majors until after juniors enroll, then open to all on November 19.
This class will meet with 597EL, which will have an enrollment capacity of 5 for DACSS students,
