Our PhD program in Economics at ISER provides supervision opportunities in applied microeconomics and microeconometrics, ideal for researchers working with socio-economic survey data.

With our strong background in analyzing both cross-sectional and longitudinal datasets, we particularly encourage applicants focusing on panel data techniques, survival analysis methodologies, data imputation, error measurement, endogeneity challenges, and related estimation topics.
