Biography
Professor Michael Burke is the Earl P. and Ethel B. Koerner Chair in Strategy and Entrepreneurship at Tulane University's Freeman School of Business and holds an adjunct appointment in the Department of Psychology (School of Science and Engineering).
Professor Burke's research focuses on learning and the efficacy of workplace safety and health interventions, and the role of individual and situational factors as antecedents to individual, group, and organizational outcomes. In addition, he contributes to literature on the statistical properties and applications of meta-analytic procedures and procedures for estimating inter-rater agreement.
He is the author of numerous articles and book chapters on these and other topics in applied psychology, management, measurement, and statistics.
During his early career at Tulane, he was asked to assist with the HAMMER (Hazardous Materials Management and Emergency Response) project, a joint effort between Tulane University and the U.S. Department of Energy to evaluate worker safety training for the tens of thousands of workers involved in nuclear waste cleanup after the Cold War. Professor Burke appreciates that Tulane continues to support his multidisciplinary research programs, and he also enjoys the rewarding opportunities to work with doctoral students in the Latin America Ph.D. program, where he frequently connects with faculty at Latin American universities.
