Selcan Mutgan

Selcan Mutgan is an Assistant Professor at the Department of Management and Engineering and the Institute for Analytical Sociology at Linköping University. Her primary research examines spatial income inequality, school segregation, and residential segregation dynamics using Swedish micro-data.

Her work investigates how parental choices about housing and schools collectively impact segregation patterns, with projects including computer simulations of school closure impacts and analyses of income-based residential isolation.

Articles consistently focus on segregation mechanisms in Swedish society, combining quantitative sociology with policy analysis to challenge assumptions about egalitarian societies.

She has collaborated internationally through programs like the Scandinavian Consortium for Organisational Research fellowship at Stanford University.
