Biography
Anuja Suhasini Bajaj is a Lecturer in Economics at SOAS University of London.
She holds a PhD in Economics from the University of Sussex. Her research lies at the intersection of applied microeconomics, political economy and labour economics, with a particular focus on conflict, social bias and discrimination.
Her research uses applied econometric and computational methods, including causal inference and text analysis, to study questions relating to political violence, hate crime, elections and racial discrimination. Her doctoral thesis, Three Essays on Conflict, Social Bias, and Racial Discrimination, examines these themes across India and the UK.
At SOAS, Anuja teaches econometrics, mathematics, and quantitative methods, at the UG and PGT levels, and is particularly interested in the effective and critical use of data and emerging technologies in economics education.
