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.
