Biography
Jason received his doctorate in Economic History from the University of Limerick in 2002. The subject of his thesis was the use of tariffs in Ireland in the interwar years. He then undertook a post-doctoral thesis at Trinity College Dublin, where the focus of his work was on creating GDP estimates for Ireland in the 19th century. Following his time at TCD, Jason joined Coventry University as part of the Centre for Local Economic Development (CLED). Jason has worked for the last decade in Coventry, focussing on statistical series and economic development. He is currently located in the Centre for Business in Society, where he works as an Associate Professor. His most recent research has been published in the Cambridge Journal of Economics and Business History.
Jason is currently active in supporting postgraduate research in the Faculty of Business and Law in his capacity as PGR Lead. His role includes assessing PhD applications, facilitating supervisory teams in their activities and helping oversee the administration and best practises of the doctoral programme. Further, Jason contributes to research-led teaching by developing and delivering teaching case studies based on his most recent research to inform and inspire undergraduate and postgraduate students. To offer leadership and mentoring in these areas Jason has also co-authored a guidebook to PhD studies with Prof Glauco De Vita, Coventry University and Prof David Bowen, Oxford Brookes University, entitled “Roadmap to a successful PhD in Business & Management and the Social Sciences - The definitive guide for postgraduate researchers” with Peter Lang Publishing.
