Ever wondered what economists do at Sciences Po? What is their area of expertise, what do they teach, which master programme to choose?
Ask no more!
The Department of Economics is hosting an exceptional (hybrid) event this Thursday - faculty members will present their research, our economics related master programmes at Sciences Po and will answer all the questions you may have.

Invitation to conference 'Weaponization of the economy"
L'Association pour le Débat en Économie (ADE), the Sciences Po student association for debate in economics, will be hosting its first conference of the year on the theme:
Weaponization of the Economy : Historical Perspectives and Current Policies
Guest speakers:

Empirical economics sets out to fill the gap between economic theory and observed data. Relying on case studies and econometrics, it is useful to evaluate and improve public policies in areas such as labour, health, education, family and development economics. But in 1983, Edward Leamer took empirical economists to task: take the “con out of econometrics”! And pursued: “Hardly anyone takes data analysis seriously.

RIEF Network Conference

The Department will be hosting the Research in International Economics and Finance (RIEF) Network's 21st Annual Doctoral Meetings.
The RIEF Network was created in 2004 in order to strengthen scientific cooperation and contacts between European research centres working on international economics. Every year it organises a doctoral meeting which gives selected PhD candidates or young doctors (on the job market) the opportunity to have their papers discussed by senior researchers in the field.

March 17th, the European Research Council (ERC) officially published the list of projects retained for its 2021 “Consolidator Grants” Call. Only 12% of submitted proposals were successful for this year’s round.
As a reminder, ERC Consolidator Grants are destined to help mi-career researchers consolidate their own teams and carry out innovative projects across all scientific disciplines.
