Dr. Donggyu Sul

Professor of Economics

“As an applied econometrician, I have tried to follow the three research principles. First, do not believe previous theories and claims proposed by others. Second, do not believe yourself either. Finally, just try to listen to your data. Eventually the data will tell you the truth.”
