Hi! My name is Julia Zhu. I am a postdoctoral fellow in labor economics at the Department of Economics and FAIR Center at the Norwegian School of Economics (NHH). I received my PhD from Cornell University in 2022.

 

I am an applied microeconomist. My research interests are in labor economics, economics of migration, and economics of education.

 

I have several lines of active research that investigate the causes and effects of high-skilled immigration, labor market institutions and immigrant workers, local impacts of immigration enforcement policies, climate change and migration, attitude formation towards immigrants and racial minorities, and population estimation using demographic techniques.
