Shauna Phillips

Research interests

My research interests include the effects of macroeconomy on agriculture and international trade.

I teach a variety of courses in the faculty, with subjects that cover applied econometrics, production economics, research methods, international trade, and economic policy. I’ve also developed a special program for students with difficulties in econometrics.
