Faculty
Committed to both scholarship and research, the faculty of the Andrew Young School of Policy Studies instruct nearly 10,000 students, publish over 300 books and papers, undertake nearly $40 million in active external research funding grants, serve on dozens of journal editorial boards, and referee for over 200 different journals annually. As a reflection of this commitment, the Andrew Young School of Policy Studies was recently ranked 27th among 269 graduate programs in public affairs by U.S. News & World Report (2009). Additionally, the Department of Economics was ranked 1st in the state of Georgia and 9th in the entire Southeast (2009).
Faculty and research associates have worked in over 30 countries provided technical assistance to numerous international agencies, such as the Asian Development Bank, the Government of Denmark, U.S.A.I.D., and the World Bank, among others.
In 2009, we succeeded in recruiting noted scholar W. Bartley Hildreth to serve as the new Dean of the Andrew Young School. Along with four endowed chair holders with major national reputations, Jim Cox, Barry Hirsch, David Sjoquist, and Dennis Young, anchoring our growing program we are well placed to continue to excel.
