The Regional Research Institute will co-host a seminar with the Department of Economics titled “How Economic Development Incentives Affect Racial and Gender Segregation of Employment and Wages” at 11:30 a.m. tomorrow (Feb. 14) in Reynolds Hall, Room 5201.
Carlianne Patrick is an associate professor of economics in the Andrew Young School of Policy Studies at Georgia State University and a research affiliate with the W.E. Upjohn Institute for Employment Research.
She conducts policy-relevant research that investigates how local variation in economic incentives and other conditions affect economic outcomes. One strand of her research focuses on the effect of, and theoretical justification for, policies aimed at altering firm decisions, such as where to locate. Another explores the effect of local public good and tax policies on households' location decisions. A third studies how locational characteristics influence labor market outcomes.
Patrick’s research has been published in the Journal of Regional Science, Journal of Urban Economics, and Regional Science and Urban Economics, Economic Development Quarterly, Economic Inquiry, the National Tax Journal and Small Business Economics.
She is also a recipient of the Miernyk Research Excellence Medal, the Andrew Young School of Policy Studies Dean’s Early Career Award, Charles M. Tiebout Prize in Regional Science, Barry M. Moriarty Prize, W.E. Upjohn Foundation Early Career Award, the Hewings Award for Outstanding Achievement, and the Regional Science Association International Dissertation Award.
She has been invited to serve on several panels including those by the American Tax Policy Institute and Public Choice Society, and she has been a Lincoln Institute Scholar. Patrick received her doctoral degree from The Ohio State University.
