🎓 OPEC 2026 at OU

On May 14, our PhD students participated in the OU–OSU PhD Students Conference (OPEC) hosted at the University of Oklahoma. Three of our PhD students (Pierce Plucker, Akseli DeBlieck, and Md Mahbubul Alam) presented their papers. We had a wonderful time connecting with our colleagues at the OU Economics Department.

Congrats to all our students who presented and thank you to the OU for inviting us!

Ending the year the best way we know how — good food and even better company 🧡

The Econ faculty gathered for lunch as we wrap up the academic year. We’re sad to see Dr. Qiyao Zhuo leave and wish him all the best in this next chapter.

Have a great summer! ☀️😎
