Walter Ryley
I am currently wrapping up my PhD at Wayne State University.
My research applies techniques from labor economics to occupational health/safety. I am particularly interested in the trucking industry. My research explores safety performance measurement and the relationship between safety outcomes, driver compensation, and other carrier operational characteristics.
I teach entry level economics, intermediate microeconomics, and analytics here at BGSU.
I enjoy teaching and I enjoy economics.
