Education Policy Speaker Series

Mark Chin is an Assistant Professor of Education Policy and Inequality at Peabody College of Vanderbilt University. Chin studies school integration, school choice, racial bias in education, and how schools affect students’ racial attitudes, prosocial behaviors, and equity-aligned sociopolitical preferences. His research is motivated by the belief that key to addressing persistent disparities in society is uncovering how schools might reduce negative outgroup prejudices, increase prosociality, and foster widespread commitment to advancing equity. Chin’s work has been published in peer-reviewed journals. He received his PhD in Education from Harvard University in 2022.
