My teaching and research focus on American Politics and Public Administration. While my research also falls within these two broad areas, its themes are more specific. For several years, I have been interested in the impact of delegation on public policy. That is, how policy is influenced by the relationship between Congress and the bureaucracy or Congress and the States. More recently, I have been also looking at the impact of campaigns on elections, and how effective a campaign can be. Finally, I am also looking at how assessment plans are developed within the university. |
