I have chaired or served on numerous PhD and Masters’ graduate committees across a range of departments including Economics, History, Resource Economics and Policy, Spatial Information Science and Engineering, School of Marine Sciences, and Wildlife Ecology. RESEARCH EXPERIENCE AND INTERESTS My main research interests are in applied demography and socio-economic change and their implications for public policy. Current work is focused on the impact of demographic, economic and workforce trends and projections for higher education. At the Council of Graduate Schools I am working on two, major areas – career pathways of graduate students and the impact of student debt on graduate (and undergraduate) education. Recent research has been in human dimensions of the environment. A core focus was to develop theoretical understanding of how human activity propagates on regional and continental scales and to find ways to make quantitative predictions of future impacts on the basis of policy-relevant indicators. Other basic research has been into underlying environmental and socio-economic processes, involving three applied programs funded by major federal grants: 1) the effects of atmospheric deposition in watersheds in Maine; 2) a comparative study of the policy implications of sea level rise in California and Maine, and 3) policy responses to greenhouse gas emissions in Maine. Each of these projects had strong policy applications. See Grants, Publications and Presentations for the scope of these projects. An earlier area of research was in the field of social policy. My research in this area initially involved work on rural poverty trends and childhood hunger in Maine. Later work was on rural children’s mental health, examining the risk and protective factors for children growing up in rural areas to inform Maine and other rural mental health policy for children. Later work in this area was an analysis of Maine’s workforce, examining demographic changes and how these changes affect the nature of the workforce and economic development, particularly the ability to retain and attract industry. My early research was in the field of historical demography, particularly migration. This work examined inter alia the influence of natural resources on migration outflows nationally and regionally. The research 3 Deirdre M. Mageean, PhD yielded multiple publications and culminated in a 1997 book, Peasant Maids - City Women published by Cornell University Press.
