"Andrew Gooch is an Assistant Professor at Rowan University. His research and teaching interests lie at the intersection of American public policy, political behavior, and electoral politics. His research is published in a variety of peer-reviewed journals including Political Communication, Political Behavior, Political Science Research Methods, Presidential Studies Quarterly, and others. He is currently working on a book project about policy repositioning (aka politicians "flip-flopping"). Before coming to Rowan, he was a Postdoctoral Associate at Yale University in the Institution for Social and Policy Studies and the Center for the Study of American Politics. He completed a Ph.D. in political science at the University of California, Los Angeles, and before entering academia, he was a project manager at a political polling firm in Washington, D.C."

From the William G. Rohrer College of Business website:

I am currently Associate Professor of Sustainable Business at Rowan University. I also co-Direct the Rowan Center for Responsible Leadership housed in the Rohrer College of Business. I am proud to have developed and help supervise (with colleagues in the College of Business and School of Earth & Environment) a joint degree program offering students the opportunity to complete a BA in Environmental & Sustainability Studies alongside a Masters’ in Business Administration, because businesses are perhaps the most powerful tools we have to bring about sustainability goals.

My current research examines the role for markets and financial instruments in enacting environmental and sustainability goals. In particular, some colleagues and I are studying the potential for financial products called exchange-traded derivatives (e.g., futures contracts) to improve the performance of markets for recyclable materials in the US. This project, supported by the New Jersey Dept. of Environmental Protection and undertaken in collaboration with industry partners, explores a new avenue for creating a viable, transparent, and active market for buying and selling recyclables.

Some of my other major projects to date have focused on the history and future of waste management in New Jersey. This work has been supported by the National Science Foundation's Science, Technology & Society Program. I have also conducted research looking at other aspects of environmental policy and governance in the US and around the world. I was previously the co-director of the "Cultivating the Environmental Humanities" project (2017-2020), made possible through the support of the Humanities Connections program at the National Endowment for the Humanities.

From January 2018 to September 2021 I served as Commissioner on the New Jersey Pinelands Commission where I was also a founding member of the Land Use, Climate Impacts, and Sustainability sub-committee. In July 2019 I was named Chair’s Designee to Pinelands Development Credit Bank, an institution facilitating the market-based transfer of development rights in the Pinelands in order to permanently protect sensitive ecosystems and landscapes.

"Elaine Zundl specializes in social policy, equity in higher education, and the role of policy to advance women trapped in low-wage and low-quality work. Currently pursuing her PhD at Rutgers’ Edward J. Bloustein School of Planning and Public Policy, her dissertation uses a mixed-methods methodology to examine the institutional factors that keep women out of computer science majors. Zundl’s research includes analysis of policies designed to support women and their families such as paid family leave, secure scheduling laws, and tax credit programs. Her most recent publication considers how trends associated with the future of work impacts organizations seeking expanded rights for domestic workers. Prior to coming to Rowan University, she was the Project Manager at the Shift Project, a research project that utilizes Facebook and Instagram to investigate the nature and consequences of precarious employment in the service sector located at Harvard’s Kennedy School. Additionally, she served as Research Director of the Center for Women and Work at Rutgers University."
