Overview
신은철 교수는 KAIST 경영대학 경영경제 분야 부교수(정년보장)로 재직 중이며, 네트워크 이론, 산업조직론, 정치경제학 등 다양한 경제 분야에서 활발히 연구하고 있습니다. 연구에서는 주로 개인과 기업이 네트워크 내에서 상호작용하는 전략적 행동에 초점을 맞추고 있습니다. 특히 경제 주체들이 네트워크 구조를 활용해 최적의 결정을 내리고, 네트워크 특성에 따라 균형 결과가 어떻게 달라지는지를 분석합니다. 또한, 사회 계획자(social planner)가 제한적인 네트워크 정보를 어떻게 활용하여 경제적 효율성과 사회 후생를 증진시키는 방안을 연구하고 있습니다.

신은철 교수는 랜덤 그래프 이론, 확률 과정, 통계적 학습 등 다양한 방법론을 결합한 새로운 이론적 모델을 개발하여, 네트워크 형성과 그 결과를 설명하고 예측합니다. 또한, 행동 및 실험 경제학적 방법을 통해 네트워크 형성에 영향을 미치는 다양한 인센티브를 실증적으로 검증하고 있습니다. 궁극적으로는 이러한 연구를 통해 경제 주체들의 전략적 행동을 이해하고, 이를 바탕으로 한 정책적 함의를 제시하고자 합니다.

My research focuses on strategic behavior of individuals and firms interacting within a network. My papers demonstrate (1) how economic agents can optimize behavior as a function of network structure, (2) how equilibrium outcomes can depend on network properties, (3) how certain network properties emerge from network formation incentives, and (4) how social planners can incorporate information on network properties in their intervention plans. To answer these questions, I build novel theoretical models of networks that integrate techniques from random graph theory, stochastic processes, and statistical learning. I also use experimental methods to test, in a controlled empirical setting, how network formation is influenced by different incentives.
