About Jennifer Keil

Jenny Keil was chair of the Economics, Strategy, and Marketing Department and teaches economics and management at the undergraduate level, and leadership skill development courses in the Hamline MBA program. She holds Ph.D. and MBA degrees from the University of Kansas, and a B.B.A. from the University of Michigan.  

The common theme throughout Professor Keil's research is how women interact with and are impacted by the economy. In particular, her research focuses on labor market issues such as individual and household work decisions, work and family balance issues, and the impact of variable pay on the gender pay differential. Her first book, Earn More, Move Up: A New Look at the Gender Pay Differential, was published by the Center for Economic Progress in November 2006. Keil makes several local, regional, and national presentations on women, the economy, and pay each year. In the years she taught at Hamline, she was selected undergraduate advisor of the year twice.
