Research Interests: Future of Work, Organizations, Social Inequality, Gender and Family

Minjin Chae is a Doctoral Student in Sociology. She studies how individual decisions and behaviors regarding work and family, often perceived as voluntary and rational, are in fact deeply embedded in social structures and norms. In her projects, she asks whether workplace flexibility shifts gendered domestic expectations, how occupational segregation produces gender and racial inequality in remote work, and how organizational configurations mediate the effects of flexibility and childcare policies. She uses quantitative methods with administrative, survey, and experimental data from the United States, Germany, and South Korea. She received her BA in History Education and Business Administration from Seoul National University. She completed her MA in sociology from the same institution.
