Kyung Park
Associate Professor of Economics
My research interests encompass political economy, legal systems, and affordable housing.
Currently, I am exploring the impacts of affordable housing initiatives and examining how housing affordability has evolved in recent years. My work aims to shed light on the complex interplay between economic policies, legal frameworks, and housing accessibility. I welcome inquiries from colleagues and students interested in discussing these topics further.
At Wellesley, I teach a range of courses that reflect my expertise and research focus. These include Intermediate Microeconomic Theory (Econ 201), Econometrics (Econ 203), Advanced Econometrics (Econ 303), and Economics of Law, Policy, and Inequality (Econ 327). Additionally, I am excited to be introducing a new course on Contemporary Macroeconomic Policy, which will explore current economic challenges and policy responses.
