Alison Andrew

At Trinity, I run tutorials (small group teaching) for undergraduate students on quantitative methods for economists (econometrics), on probability and statistics and on maths.

In the economics department, I lecture on an undergraduate course on labor economics. I also teach a graduate course on household economics. I supervise MPhil theses on topics related to my research.

My research explores the drivers of socio-economic and gender inequalities in material living standards, agency, health, and education. There are two main applied strands to my research: (1) exploring the determinants of gender inequalities within the household; and (2) exploring the design and quality of public policies seeking to lessen socio-economic inequalities.
