Hello! I am Saima Alam Samantha, a Visiting Assistant Professor at Fairfield University.
My research focuses on applied microeconomics, specifically labor, gender and health economics.
I am interested in how social norms, institutions, and policies affect women's and men's economic outcomes and decisions in different contexts.
With more than five years of teaching experience, I have instructed a wide range of courses, including introductory and intermediate levels of Microeconomics and Macroeconomics, Labor Economics, International Trade, Statistics, Data Analysis, and Introductory Econometrics, fostering an inclusive and stimulating learning environment.
I am in the 2024-25 job market.
