ROHIT ALLENA

  I joined the C.T. Bauer College of Business, University of Houston, as an Assistant Professor of Finance in the Fall 2021. Prior to joining Bauer, I obtained a Finance Ph.D. at the Goizueta Business School, Emory University, in the Summer 2021. 

​

  In my dissertation, titled ``Three Essays on Estimation Uncertainty", I show why and how considering estimation uncertainty is important in answering three fundamental asset pricing and market-microstructure questions. My dissertation essays are available here, one of which won a Cubist Systematic Strategies award for outstanding research at the Western Finance Association (WFA) 2020 annual meetings.

​

  Before starting my Ph.D., I obtained bachelor's and master's degrees in Statistics at Indian Statistical Institute, where I received Dr. N.S. Iyenger Award for Best Student of Econometrics.
