Matthew P. Steinberg

Assistant Professor of Education at the University of Pennsylvania

Matthew P. Steinberg, Ph.D. is an Associate Professor of Education Policy in the School of Education at George Mason University. He is a University Affiliate Faculty at the Schar School of Policy and Government. Dr. Steinberg is an Affiliated Researcher with the University of Chicago Consortium on School Research, an Academic Affiliate with the Educator Impact Laboratory at Mathematica Policy Research, and an IUR Scholar at the University of Pennsylvania Institute for Urban Research.

Dr. Steinberg's research addresses issues of educational significance at the intersection of the economics of education and education policy, including: teacher evaluation and human capital; urban school reform; school discipline and safety; and school finance. His work informs local and national policy discussions on the impact of education policies and practices on the distribution of teacher effectiveness and the educational outcomes of students, particularly the most disadvantaged among the population.
