Call for Papers – Annual ASSA Meetings

TPUG has a long history of presentations at the ASSA meetings, and more recently at the WEAI meetings.  At the ASSA meetings, TPUG holds four sessions – two in transportation economics and two in Public Utility economics.  Historically, one of the sessions is co-sponsored with the AEA.

The annual ASSA meetings are typically held in January and TPUG’s call for papers opens on February 1st. To have your research considered at the annual ASSA meeting in January, please find this Google Form  (available 02/01) and enter the relevant information including title, abstract and authors as well as their contact information. The due dates for paper submission to the TPUG sessions at the annual ASSA meeting in January are:

  • March 1 – for the joint session with the AEA
  • May 15 – for the other sessions

All program participants for the ASSA meetings must register for the ASSA convention and become TPUG members ($30 TPUG membership fee or a $300 lifetime membership fee). 

If you are having trouble accessing the Google Form after February 1, please find this TPUG call for papers (MS Word .doc) and enter the title, an abstract, and authors (and contact information for all authors). Please send this form directly to Akshaya Jha akshayaj@andrew.cmu.edu .

There is also a listserve which is used to disseminate information directly to members. Please contact the secretary (Misak Avetisyan (Misak.Avetisyan@ttu.edu)) to add your name to the listserve.
