Dr. Greene joined the Department in 1994. He received his Ph.D. from the University of California at Davis in 1992 with fields in monetary economics, mathematical economics and economic history. Dr. Greene teaches undergraduate and graduate macroeconomics, introductory microeconomics, and occasionally a course in economic development and growth which has been offered jointly with the Honors College. He also teaches a course in time-series empirical methods (econometrics) for undergraduate and graduate students. Much of his research is concerned with bringing scientific sensibilities to empirical economics. Recent papers examine issues in using economic data to evaluate and improve economic theory. This includes papers such as “Data Mining”, forthcoming in The New Palgrave Dictionary of Economics, and a work-in-progress titled “Economic Measures of Cointegration and Non-Cointegration”. He has also done work on theories of money which imply a non-linear relationship between monetary policy and economic activity, such as the paper “Smooth-Adjustment Econometrics And Inventory-Theoretic Money Management”, now under review.
