Renan Levine

Renan Levine earned his PhD from Duke University after completing his undergraduate studies at the University of Rochester. Originally from the desert of Arizona, he grew up in Philadelphia but enjoyed traveling abroad so much that he spent time in Berlin, Dublin, Istanbul, Jerusalem, and Oxford. An avid news junkie, his courses often strive to help students understand the latest news headlines by better understanding voter psychology, politicians' strategic decisions, and the institutional context in which those decisions are made. Even though he often struggled with math, he enjoys teaching statistics and hopes you will enjoy learning useful analytical tools in his classes.
