NCEE's mission is to advance the theory and practice of economics and risk analysis within EPA (www.epa.gov/aboutepa/about-office-policy-op#NCEE).

NCEE serves as a center of expertise for cutting-edge policy analysis and research in environmental economics (https://www.epa.gov/environmental-economics). NCEE economists engage in both fast-paced efforts to apply economic reasoning in real-time regulatory development, and longer-term research projects to inform the Agency’s strategic direction.

Applicants should have a completed PhD in economics by August 2024. NCEE is interested in candidates with expertise in structural modeling, and computable general equilibrium modeling, integrated assessment modeling, or power sector modeling in particular; in addition to distributional, environmental and benefit-cost analysis of environmental policy.

Full U.S. citizenship is required and must be affirmed in cover letter or resume for consideration. Salaries are competitive. EPA is an equal opportunity employer. Send application questions to NCEE@epa.gov.
