\"Headshot<\/p>\n

Dr. Lourenco Paz<\/a>\u2019s expertise in international trade has already been displayed in leading scholarly journals and international seminars. Now, he\u2019s getting to go even deeper in his work in Hungary through a prestigious Fulbright award<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Fulbright U.S. Scholar Awards are the most sought-after fellowships for scholars from the U.S. Department of State, and Paz\u2019s receipt of the award will open doors for research and scholarly collaboration around the world.<\/p>\n

Paz, an associate professor of economics beginning his 10th year in Baylor\u2019s Hankamer School of Business<\/a>, will travel to Budapest to teach at Corvinus University of Budapest, conduct international trade research, develop a new methodology related to labor clauses in trade agreements, and seek to build further partnership opportunities between Baylor and international institutions.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe award is important because it promotes invaluable research in important fields of knowledge and entails a human dimension of bringing scholars of different countries,\u201d Paz says. \u201cSuch an exchange of experiences helps promote mutual understanding between the U.S. and other countries. Personally, this award will raise awareness about the need for research on the intricate relationship between international trade and decent work conditions throughout the world.\u201d<\/p>\n

It’s a natural fit for Paz, whose research focuses on the impacts of international trade on developing countries. In particular, Paz studies the labor market and work conditions globally as they are affected by trade. His work has been published in leading journals such as the Journal of International Economics<\/em>, Journal of Development Economics<\/em> and Oxford Research Encyclopedia of Economics and Finance<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Baylor has enjoyed a record-setting year for Fulbrights<\/a>, with 18 students and two faculty earning awards. As Paz flings his green and gold afar in Europe, he\u2019ll come back with additional research threads for future work to burnish Baylor\u2019s global impact and serve nations around the world looking for new ways to examine and consider international trade.<\/p>\n
