Mauricio M. Caceres Bravo

Economics PhD candidate at Brown University

About

I'm a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Economics at Brown University. Starting in August of 2025, I am thrilled to join the Department of Economics and Finance at the Zicklin School of Business in Baruch College as an Assistant Professor.

I am an applied microeconomist. My primary fields of interest are criminal justice, applied econometrics, and healthcare.

I have a MA in Economics from Columbia University, and BS in Economics and a BS in Mathematics from the University of Utah. I worked as a research assistant at the National Bureau of Economic Research for two years and at the Yale School of Management for two years. I've also worked as a credit risk analyst at Zions Bancorporation in Utah and as a data analyst for the Veteran's Administration in Boston.
