Academic Portfolio
Academic economics, WTO policy, and reproducible analytics
Prof. Osman Gulseven is Associate Professor of Economics and WTO Chair at Sultan Qaboos University in Muscat, Oman. His work connects international trade, finance, econometrics, food security, data visualization, and policy analytics with applied teaching and reproducible computational methods.
The site presents public-facing research, WTO-related capacity-building work, teaching materials, technical methods, and academic infrastructure in a compact format for scholars, policy stakeholders, students, and collaborators.

Quick pathways
Research
Applied trade, food-security, finance, and econometrics themes with publication links.
Teaching
Courses emphasize applied methods, reproducibility, simulations, and policy communication.
Tools
Reproducible workflows, public resources, responsible AI-supported workflows, and technical methods for applied economics.
Public Resources
Externally hosted public folders and pages collect reviewed materials when available.
Featured expertise
International trade and WTO policy
Trade agreements, WTO policy, regional integration, GCC and Oman-focused trade questions, non-tariff measures, and simulation-based policy teaching.
Applied econometrics and data visualization
Panel-data methods, gravity models, PPML, time-series analysis, reproducible reports, policy charts, and applied teaching examples in R, Python, Google Colab, and Quarto.
Food security and price transmission
Food-security analysis, global commodity shocks, Oman food CPI, agricultural markets, resilience questions, and clear communication of price-transmission evidence.
Finance, risk, and market analytics
Financial-market behavior, inflation hedging, gold, real estate, cryptocurrency dynamics, portfolio analysis, and risk methods presented as academic and educational analysis.
Teaching innovation and TINA simulations
Graduate econometrics, international agricultural trade, policy briefs, active-learning projects, and TINA-based trade simulations that connect theory with policy scenarios.
Academic tools and reproducible research
Quarto, LaTeX, Git/GitHub, structured datasets, AI-assisted drafting support, and prototype research infrastructure such as ScholarDoc and ScholarTeX, described cautiously until public release.
Current focus
- Oman food security, food CPI, and price transmission from global commodity markets.
- WTO Chair research on trade policy, GCC integration, non-tariff measures, WTO agreements, and evidence-based trade-policy dialogue.
- TINA-based FTA simulations in international trade teaching and applied policy education.
- Applied data visualization and Python/R teaching materials for economics students.
- ScholarDoc and ScholarTeX academic tools for structured writing, LaTeX, and document workflows.
- Financial-market and algorithmic trading examples as technical research and teaching interests, not investment advice.
Academic Tools
ScholarDoc
AI-assisted academic document builder for structured writing, equation-aware Word-style document generation, citation formatting support, and academic manuscript preparation.
ScholarTeX
Browser-based LaTeX and Beamer editor/compiler designed for academic writing, teaching material preparation, multi-file LaTeX projects, BibTeX workflows, and reproducible document development.
