Bradley R. Curs is an Associate Professor in the Department of Educational Leadership and Policy Analysis (ELPA) at the University of Missouri, College of Education and Human Development. He joined the faculty in 2005 after earning his PhD in Economics from the University of Oregon. His work bridges economics and education policy, focusing on improving access, equity, and success in higher education.
His research centers on three main areas: the effectiveness of financial aid programs, institutional behaviors in higher education, and pre-college and financial factors affecting student success. He also conducts cost-effectiveness analyses of educational interventions, contributing to evidence-based policy design.
The trends in his scholarly focus—though specific publications are not detailed—reflect a consistent engagement with higher education policy through an economic lens, particularly around financial barriers and program evaluation.
