谢宇（1959年10月12日—），男，江苏省镇江市人，华人社会学家，美国普林斯顿大学社会学系与普林斯顿国际与区域研究中心教授、美国国家科学院院士、中央研究院院士。[1][2]。近些年，他致力于在中国推广实证的社会学研究，2009年开始担任北京大学“长江学者”讲座教授，2011年担任该校“千人计划”讲座教授。同时还是上海大学、香港科技大学、中国人民大学、香港中文大学的荣誉教授。
谢宇1959年出生于江苏镇江，是家中两个儿子中的老二。他的父母都是医生。谢宇的早年教育受到文化大革命的影响，上学较迟，他的家庭也在文化大革命中遭受迫害。文化大革命结束后，他进入了上海工业大学（现为上海大学），学习冶金工程，1982年获得了工学学士学位。随后他到美国进入威斯康辛大学学习，于1984年获得了科学史硕士学位(M.S.)和社会学硕士学位（M.A.），并于1989获得了该校社会学博士学位（Ph.D.）。获得博士学位后，谢宇进入密歇根大学，任助理教授，1994年升任副教授，1996年升任教授。他在1997年加入美国国籍。
谢宇主要研究领域有统计方法、社会分层、人口学、科学社会学、中国研究等。他的学术论文发表在《美国社会学杂志》、《美国社会学评论》、《人口统计学》、《社会力量》、《社会学方法》 、《美国经济学评论》、《美国国家科学院院刊》、《美国统计协会杂志》等期刊上。[3]
谢宇开发了一系列用于分类数据分析的统计程序，特别是他所开发的对数相乘层阶效应模型（log-multiplicative layer-effect model）已经被广泛应用于比较（历史或国际政治）分析表格分析中。他也把这个模型拓展到生育率研究的Coale-Trussell方法和历史事件分析的研究中。他与丹尼尔·A.鲍威斯合著的教科书 《分类数据分析的统计方法》，在统一框架下系统性的介绍了数据分类分析的各种方法，已经成为社会科学研究方法的重要参考书籍。他近期关于方法的研究包括友谊选择中离散选择模型、基于观测数据的因果推断和人口的异质性。

谢宇对社会分层的研究做出了巨大的贡献。特别是他对美国移民的研究，为美国移民在教育、职位、收入、健康和家庭等各方面提供了重要的实证知识。比如，虽然亚裔美国人在通过教育改变经济社会地位方面很突出，但他们所受教育能得到回报仍然取决于他们在哪里受教育，那些在美国以外受教育的人在收入仍偏低。在以调查数据为基础写就的专著《美国亚裔的人口统计描述》中，谢宇与合作者Kimberly Goyette系统的描述了亚裔美国人与其他族裔群体社会经济地位方面的不同，同时描述了亚裔美国人这个族群中的异质性。在于Jennie Brand合作的研究中，谢宇指出那些最不可能进入大学的人，一旦进入大学会从大学教育中获取经济利益。他近期与Alexandra Killewald的研究驳斥了Ferrie的观点，后者认为从十九世纪开始美国的社会流动性已经显著降低。
