Mohsen鈥檚 research interests are varied, spanning applied/empirical economics, labour economics, and economic inequality (especially labour market inequalities and discrimination experienced by women, immigrants, and racial minorities). More recently, he has also been interested in examining different aspects of the mainstream economics, including views among economists and economics students, and the role of ideological bias in shaping these views. He is currently involved in a related large-scale research project in collaboration with from the University of Cambridge and funded by SSHRC. He is also a co-investigator on a multidisciplinary academic-community SSHRC partnership grant to collaboratively generate and mobilize new knowledge about precarity in and beyond employment in British Columbia (BC) to address its impacts and advance policy solutions.

Despite varied research interests, one identifiable theme in Mohsen鈥檚 work is understanding and challenging the mechanisms and processes that hinder plurality and produce inequality, injustice, exclusion, and marginalization.
