Economics Department Faculty

Shippensburg University's economics department faculty members' academic specialties cover nearly all important topics in the field. In addition to both micro and macro theory and policy areas, the faculty have expertise in such diverse topics as healthcare and environmental issues, international trade, and econometrics. The department sponsors an Economics Club for interested students and has a local chapter of the national economic honor society, Omicron Delta Epsilon (ODE). The department has successfully competed in the Fed Challenge, a student-team panel competition sponsored annually by the Richmond Federal Reserve Bank.
