Dr.
Sevda Kuşkaya received her Ph.D. in Economics from Erciyes University. Her
doctoral dissertation, titled “The Effectiveness of Energy Policies Followed
in Controlling Global Warming: A Continuous Wavelet Coherence Model Approach”
investigates the impact of energy policies on global warming using advanced
econometric techniques. The thesis was supported by the Erciyes University
Scientific Research Projects Unit (Project No: SDK-2017-7332) and was awarded
the “Most Successful Doctoral Thesis in the Field of Environment” by the
Environment Foundation in 2018.
Her
research interests include economics, applied economics, the economics of
climate change, greenhouse gas emissions, renewable energy and the environment,
energy policies, environmental and energy economics, matrix algebra, time,
series and panel data analyses, as well as continuous and partial wavelet
coherence analyses. She is also aiming to incorporate artificial intelligence
and machine learning methods into her interdisciplinary research agenda.
Dr.
Kuşkaya is the author or co-author of 67 peer-reviewed publications in national
and international journals. Her work has appeared in high-impact journals such
as Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews, Applied Economic Analysis, Quality
and Quantity, Journal of Cleaner Production, Renewable Energy, Energy,
