Tiffany Wu

Tiffany Wu is a doctoral student in the Combined Program in Education and Psychology (CPEP) at the University of Michigan and is pursuing a dual master’s degree in Statistics. She is also an IES Causal Inference Predoctoral Fellow and a 2022 APPAM Equity and Diversity Fellow. Tiffany is broadly interested in examining education interventions and policies through research-practice partnerships, using causal inference and machine learning methods. Specifically, she is interested in exploring how various interventions and policies influence students’ executive functioning and social-emotional learning skills, and how they in turn impact later life success. She hopes to apply this research to inform the development of more effective and equitable education interventions and teaching policies. Tiffany received a B.S. in secondary education from Northwestern University and a M.A. in psychology from the University of Chicago. She worked as a public high school teacher in Chicago and then as a research analyst for an education non-profit prior to starting her PhD. In her free time, she likes to paint, play the piano, and rock climb.
