Marty Haoyuan Chen

Welcome! I am a PhD candidate in the Economics Department at the University of Maryland, College Park. I am a 2026-2027 NBER Doctoral Dissertation Fellow. I am on the 2026-2027 academic job market.

I am an applied microeconomist working on the economics of education. My research studies decisions made outside the classroom that shape what students achieve and where they end up: how much families spend on private tutoring, whether applicants disclose test scores to colleges, and how generative AI changes these decisions. My work informs both the evaluation of existing education policies and the design of new ones.

Here's my Curriculum Vitae.
