Matthew Rognlie is an Assistant Professor of Economics at Northwestern University's Department of Economics, affiliated with the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) as a Faculty Research Fellow. He holds a PhD from MIT (2016) and a B.S. from Duke University (2010). His research focuses on macroeconomics, monetary policy, international economics, and inequality, with a particular emphasis on heterogeneous-agent models (HANK). Rognlie is currently on leave at the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis for the 2024–25 academic year.
Education: PhD in Economics from MIT (2016), advised by Iván Werning, Daron Acemoglu, and Alp Simsek; B.S. in Economics and Mathematics from Duke University (2010), graduating summa cum laude.
Research Interests: His work examines fiscal and monetary policy transmission, global imbalances, and the macroeconomic impacts of inequality. He co-developed the sequence-space Jacobian toolkit for solving heterogeneous-agent models, which underpins his empirical and theoretical contributions.
Awards: 2025 Alfred P. Sloan Fellowship; 2024 NSF Grant (co-PI with Auclert/Straub); 2016 MIT Solow Prize; multiple teaching awards from MIT and Duke.
Grants: Co-PI on NSF projects studying heterogeneous-agent models and policy transmission mechanisms. His work is supported by the NSF and NBER.
Teaching: Teaches graduate courses in macroeconomics at Northwestern, including Econ 411-3 on Heterogeneous-Agent Models. Developed workshops on HANK models at NBER and Goethe University.
Labs/Teams: Collaborates with researchers like Adrien Auclert and Ludwig Straub on macroeconomic modeling and policy analysis, leveraging computational tools for model estimation and simulation.
