Opportunity Insights (OI) at Harvard University is hiring several full-time predoctoral fellows to start in Summer 2024 to work with our research group and under the direction of Raj Chetty, John Friedman, and Nathan Hendren. OI is a nonpartisan research and policy institute focused on improving economic opportunity. Founded in 2018, OI has become a nationally and internationally recognized leader in the science of economic mobility and in the use of large administrative data to understand and address inequality. OI has published seminal work on national trends in upward mobility; racial disparities; the role of neighborhoods, social capital, and higher education in upward mobility; and the use of private-sector data to understand disparate impacts in the recent economic recession and recovery. Much of the team’s ongoing research uses quasi-experimental methods to identify causal effects and test the predictions of economic and sociological models. Examples of current research projects include: long-term impacts of neighborhoods and place-based policies, the role of colleges in upward mobility, using big data to address health disparities, and measuring how social networks affect mobility. OI’s work has shaped policy discussions at the national and local level, with nearly a dozen of its studies covered on the front pages of major media outlets, such as the New York Times, The Economist, The Washington Post, and the Wall Street Journal, and have been widely cited in policy discussions.

Fellows will be based at Harvard or Brown Universities under the direction of Professors Chetty, Friedman, and Hendren. The fellowship will include a variety of tasks that provide preparation for graduate school, such as analyzing data, developing statistical models, creating presentations, and editing research papers. In addition to working with OI faculty, predoctoral fellows frequently co-author papers with other students or faculty members. Fellows will interact regularly with professors and their collaborators – such as Stefanie DeLuca, David Deming, Matthew Jackson, Larry Katz, Theresa Kuchler, Michael Stepner, and Johannes Stroebel – in a team-oriented lab environment, with regular lab meetings, seminars, and other events. Fellows also have the opportunity to support our research translation and policy work through such resources as the Opportunity Atlas, the Social Capital Atlas, and the Economic Tracker.

Fellows are invited to participate in broader activities at Harvard and Brown, including seminars and courses. The program serves as an ideal bridge between college and graduate school for students interested in empirical economics. Most previous fellows have gone on to top Ph.D. programs. Salary and benefits are competitive with other top predoctoral fellowships.

As an organization focused on economic mobility, we value the many backgrounds, perspectives, and lived experiences in our community. We welcome applications from persons from underrepresented groups. Even if applicants are uncertain whether their technical research skill or subject-matter knowledge will be competitive, we strongly encourage applications.

Applicants should have completed a bachelor’s degree (or be on track to complete by July 2024) or master’s degree, have strong quantitative skills, and experience with empirical research methods. Candidates with research experience are strongly preferred, especially those with programming experience in Stata, SAS, R, and/or Python. Candidates need not be Economics majors, though they should have a strong interest in and some experience with Economics. Successful candidates have come from a variety of backgrounds (including from undergraduate and graduate programs, industry jobs, and other research assistant positions), and have a range of skill levels and experience with coding.

Fellowships will begin around July 1, 2024. Fellows typically work at OI full-time for two years before starting graduate school in Economics or another social science or pursuing other related career paths.

PhD position in Lifetime Wage Inequality

Aarhus BSS Graduate School, Aarhus University invites applicants for a PhD Scholarship in Economics in connection with the research project “Causes of Lifetime Income Inequality” at the PhD Programme Economics and Business Economics. The project team consists Professor Jesper Bagger, University of Edinburgh, Professor Chris Taber, University of Wisconsin-Madison, Associate Professor Jonas Maibom, University of Aarhus, and Professor Rune Vejlin, University of Aarhus.

The research project

The project and the PhD thesis address issues regarding differences in lifetime income inequality using Danish register data. PhD student should write a PhD project proposal that contribute to one of the following projects.

1. The first possibility consists of a thesis evolving around the description of lifetime income inequality in Denmark over the last 40 years. What are the causes of difference in lifetime income inequality? How are these differences related to educational and career choices? How are they related to periods out of the labor market? How is lifetime inequality shaped by the tax and transfer system?
2. The second possibility is to write a thesis regarding the heterogeneity in labor market transition rates (job finding and job loss). An important driver of income inequality in a lifetime perspective is time spent out of the labor market. However, there is little consensus on what drives e.g., heterogeneity in job loss probabilities. Is it particular workers how has a high probability of being laid-off or is it particular firms or industries, which always lays of workers. This distinction matters a lot in a lifetime perspective. If differences are caused by worker heterogeneity, then there are more severe consequences for the affected workers. Another question is what drives long-term unemployment. The two main theories are 1) worker selection or 2) state dependence.

Please indicate clearly in the application if you apply to both projects or not and the potential preference ordering.
