About the Institute for Policy Integrity

Housed at New York University School of Law, the Institute for Policy Integrity (“Policy Integrity”) is a non-partisan think tank dedicated to improving the quality of government decisionmaking.

The Economic Fellow will collaborate with legal and economic researchers to:

·         prepare policy reports, comments in regulatory proceedings, and journal articles on a variety of issues including energy and environmental justice;

·         provide technical and policy assistance to community-based organizations and facilitate engagements with communities and partners; and

Fellows are also encouraged to engage in independent research.

Qualifications

·         Ph.D. in economics or a related field by June 2023

The ideal candidate should have a focus on policy-oriented research in environmental or energy justice. The candidate will also work on other topics including energy and climate policy, natural resources management, electricity market design, and benefit-cost analysis.
