Lastly, he has expanded his work on the externalities of transportation on urban environments and developed a research agenda investigating the urban equilibrium effects arising from aircraft noise pollution.\u00a0 <span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Professor Friedt teaches Principles of Economics, Introduction to International Economics, and the capstone course International Trade and Multinational Corporations<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>BA: Whitworth University 2008<br \/>\nMS: University of Oregon 2013<br \/>\nPhD: University of Oregon 2017<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":78,"template":"","class_list":["post-131","profile","type-profile","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.macalester.edu\/economics\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profile\/131","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.macalester.edu\/economics\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profile"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.macalester.edu\/economics\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/profile"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.macalester.edu\/economics\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"version-history":[{"count":19,"href":"https:\/\/www.macalester.edu\/economics\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profile\/131\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1895,"href":"https:\/\/www.macalester.edu\/economics\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profile\/131\/revisions\/1895"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.macalester.edu\/economics\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/78"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.macalester.edu\/economics\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=131"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
