Welcome!

Welcome to my academic website! My name is Corey Williams. I am a Canadian-American Assistant Professor of Economics at Shippensburg University in Shippensburg, Pennsylvania. Broadly speaking, my research interests lie primarily in the space of applied macroeconomics and applied econometrics. These specializations notwithstanding, I have a varied research agenda with solo and coauthored projects reaching into spaces like industrial organization, and sports economics.  

Prior to my current appointment, I worked as a graduate research assistant at West Virginia University while working towards my doctorate with graduate intern experience at KeyBank in their Credit Risk Modeling and Strategic Analytics group.  Going farther back, I also worked for United Technologies Corporation (now Raytheon Technologies Corporation) on their Operations Leadership Program (OLP). For a little over a year, I worked two rotations at business units under the UTC umbrella, specifically Pratt & Whitney and Otis Worldwide.  My roles were primarily in supply chain management and business development. In addition, I was a supply chain intern for  a combined nine months at GE Aviation in Cincinnati, Ohio during the summers of my undergraduate years. 

I have a Ph.D. and  MA in Economics from WVU (2023, and 2021, respectively) and a BS in Global Supply Chain Management from Clarkson University (2018).
