Economic Development Workshop
This is open to the public.

This year-long course (Economics 3390) is offered to graduate students for academic credit. The students and faculty leading the workshop meet weekly to discuss papers on international economics, development, and economic relations between industrialized and less industrialized countries. Faculty participants are drawn from the Department of Economics and Harvard Kennedy School as well as other departments and schools of the University. The workshop also invites economists from other universities and research institutions to present their work. The papers presented are available before each talk and are posted on the course website.

For more information, interested Harvard doctoral students may contact Professors Michael Kremer and David Yanagizawa-Drott, who are directing the workshop during the 2012–2013 academic year.
