Yuanhang Zhu, M.A., B.A.

Yuanhang Zhu is a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Sociology at Yale University.  She is broadly interested in how large, complex systems coordinate action amid crisis and transformation, with a focus on the institutional and relational factors that influence their capacity to do so.  Her dissertation investigates the role of supply chain structures in shaping automakers’ ability to re-coordinate during crises in the electic vehicle (EV) transition, across diverse institutional and cultural contexts.  

Her other research examines comparative poverty governance and industrial development in solar manufacturing.
