Alumni

Upcoming Events

The CERGE-EI Alumni Network is currently updating our entire database so that we can finally get a real feel for how widely our alumni are spread around the world. We are in the process of trying to track down everyone, so if you are CERGE-EI alumni, please write to us at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it and let us know where you are - and where your fellow alumni are as well!

Who are CERGE-EI's Alumni?

You are a CERGE-EI alumnus if you fall into either of the following three categories:

a) you are a PhD graduate,

b) you are an MA graduate, or

c) you are a student who successfully completed all second-year field general examinations prior to the date when CERGE-EI was authorized to award an MA degree.

By the end of 2010, one hundred and eight students had earned their PhD degrees from CERGE-EI, while another 149 have earned and MA degree but did not go on for or have not yet completed their PhD. By extending the definition of alumni to include those who successfully completed the coursework portion of the PhD program, we now count approximately well over 300 alumni of our institution from its inception in 1991.

Benefits for Alumni

The CERGE-EI Alumni Network offers users the chance to keep in touch with professors, researchers, and former classmates, and to learn about institutional issues at CERGE-EI. Our alumni are living and working in more than 15 countries around the world, assuming some of the most dynamic and influential positions on offer. Furthermore, with a growing number of PhD graduates we are beginning to see a natural CERGE-EI alumni network of policy advisors, academics and analysts develop. It therefore only makes sense to maintain connections among our alumni.

An important component of a vibrant alumni program is input from alumni themselves. Please take a few minutes to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
