- The Ph.D. Program in political economics prepares students for research and teaching positions by providing rigorous training in theoretical and empirical techniques.
- The intellectual foundation for the program is a positive political economy, which includes formal models of rational choice, collective action, political institutions, political competition, and behavioral political economy. Development and extensions of theories are often combined with empirical analysis, including the identification of causal effects.
- Students become involved in research early in the program. They begin their own research during the first year and are required to write research papers during the summers following the first and second years.
- The program is flexible and allows ample opportunity to tailor coursework and research to individual interests. The program is small by design to promote close interaction between students and faculty.
