Development Economics examines the economies of developing nations and their populations. It applies economic principles to explore ways to enhance these countries' economic systems and their citizens' living standards. Consequently, Development Economics intersects with numerous economic disciplines. Our faculty primarily concentrates on empirical microeconomic research in development, employing diverse methodologies. They actively conduct fieldwork, gathering both observational and experimental data.
