- MS in Economics, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (1990)
- BS in Business Administration (Economics Major), Oklahoma State University (1988)
Research Focus: Dr. Hudgins specializes in applying wavelet-based optimal control frameworks to analyze macroeconomic policy effectiveness, international trade dynamics, and energy economics. His work explores how control systems can optimize policy responses to economic shocks and uncertainty. Notable areas include stress-testing US macroeconomic policies, evaluating fiscal-monetary policy balance, and modeling oil production expansions.
Publications Trends: His articles emphasize computational approaches to policy evaluation, time-frequency domain analysis, and the integration of control theory into economic models. Recent work highlights AI’s impact on unemployment dynamics and resilient control strategies for macroeconomic stability.
