Andrew Kosenko
I am a visiting Assistant Professor at the Department of Economics at the University of Pittsburgh for the 2018-2019 academic year.
I am very excited to join the Department of Economics, Accounting, and Finance at the School of Management at Marist College as an Assistant Professor of Economics in the fall of 2019.
My research interests are in game theory and microeconomic theory, mainly
in information economics (strategic communication and information design), as well as the implications of memory and
rationality, broadly understood, on strategic behavior. Aside from that I am interested
in repeated games, experimental economics, and the neuroscience of learning and memory.
