Biography
Nathan Henceroth is an Assistant Professor of Political Science at Albright College where he focuses on Comparative Politics, European Politics, Political Economy, and Research Methodology. As a graduate of a liberal arts college, he has seen the value of small classes with a rigorous curriculum that help to prepare students to become life-long learners and successful in their chosen fields.
His current research projects focus on how public spending within the European Union affects elections, the electoral effects of Coalition Governments, and the use of Social Media by extremist political parties in Europe. In the future, he plans to expand his models to American Politics and US Congressional behavior.
