Sijia Chen

I am a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Agricultural and Resource Economics at the University of Connecticut. With an interest in applied microeconomics, my research focuses on international trade, with a particular emphasis on examining the impact of trade remedy and sunset review policies on U.S. trade. I work as a research assistant in Dr. Steinbach’s research group and have presented papers at the AAEA, CEA, ASHEcon, and NEARA. I am also an instructor of record at the University of Connecticut for the senior-level undergraduate course International Trade and Policy.

I’m in the 2023-24 job market, and I’ll be presenting my work at the 2023 IATRC. My job market paper examines the effects of the implementation of anti-dumping and countervailing duties on US agricultural imports.
