RESEARCH PROGRAMS, 2013/2014

The Cowles Foundation provides support for research and research related activities through four core Research Program Areas: Econometrics, Economic Theory, Macroeconomics, and Structural Microeconomics. Each of these broad areas has deep ties to the Cowles tradition and provides a foundation for other fields of inquiry in economics and related fields.

Cowles Program Areas sponsor visiting faculty and post-docs, organize conferences, and provide other research resources at Yale:

       ECONOMETRICS
          Directors: Donald W.K. Andrews and Yuichi Kitamura

       ECONOMIC THEORY
          Directors: Dirk Bergemann and John Geanakoplos

       MACROECONOMICS
          Directors: Giuseppe Moscarini and Aleh Tsyvinski

       STRUCTURAL MICROECONOMICS
          Directors: Steven Berry and Joseph Altonji

From time to time, Cowles also sponsors shorter-term research initiatives in an area of emerging interest. Currently, Cowles is in the middle of such a special initiative in COMPUTATION.
