SUMMARY
Serajul holds a PhD in computable general equilibrium (CGE) modelling from the Centre of Policy
Studies at Monash University where he also completed a Master of Economics (Honours) degree for
which he was awarded the highest H1 classification. His Master‘s thesis was based on econometric
analysis of RAND survey data.
He is a Research Fellow (Economic Modeller) in the Department of Economics at Monash University
with affiliation to the Sustainable Tourism Cooperative Research Centre (STCRC). His current
research project involves the modelling and analysis of tourism's contribution to the Australian
economy. The main focus of the project is the development of a set of Tourism Satellite Accounts
(TSAs) for each Australian state and territory and linking them with tourism-based CGE models. His
recently completed projects include the estimation of the economic impacts of the Australian
government‘s proposed Carbon Pollution Reduction Scheme (CPRS)/Emissions Trading Scheme
(ETS) on the tourism sector using a dynamic CGE model and the estimation of tourism‘s carbon
footprint of Australia and Queensland.
Previously he taught Economics at Monash University and at the Islamic University in Bangladesh.
He has research experience with UNICEF, CARE-Bangladesh, Bangladesh Institute of Development
Studies (BIDS) and Bangladesh Rural Advancement Committee (BRAC).
Serajul‘s main area of expertise is the application of large-scale, multi-sectoral and multi-regional
CGE models for policy analysis. He uses several CGE models for his works including MMRF-
GREEN, TERM, ORANI and BAORANI. His articles have been published in a wide range of journals
including Journal of Sustainable Tourism, Asian Economic Review, Journal of Contemporary Asia
and Asian Profile. He has proficiency in computer programs such as GEMPACK (general equilibrium
modelling package), SPSS and Stata.
