Dr Marco Pelliccia

Assistant Professor in Economics

I joined HW in 2020 as Assistant Professor in Economics. I received my PhD from Birkbeck College, University of London in 2016. 

My research interests include Game Theory and Economics of Networks. In broad terms, I study how social and economic networks impact agents’ choices in various settings and how these structures arise when individual agents strategically choose their peers.  

I have recently joined the Centre for Networks and Enterprise Excellence (CNEE) at EBS.    

I contribute to the teaching of various Economics modules at EBS, including Advanced Microeconomic, Intermediate Microeconomics, and Economic Policy II.
