For a number of years, I have been the Director of Studies in Economics at Christ’s College, Cambridge, looking after the academic progress of Christ’s Economics students. This year, I am on leave for the first two terms (from October 2026 to April 2027), with my colleague Puru Gupta stepping into the role during this period.

Christ’s Economics students have made us proud with their consistently outstanding exam results, making Christ’s the top college in Economics at Cambridge (here are some recent data).
