The New Academic Year Begins

20 September, 2016

Monday, 19 September is the first day of the 2016/2017 academic year at CERGE-EI.

This year, we welcome 32 first-year students from 17 countries as well as 5 new faculty members, which ranks among the most important hiring successes in CERGE-EI’s history for faculty expansion.

Throughout the academic year, along with the classes of both major graduate study programs  -- the PhD in Economics and the MA in Applied Economics -- CERGE-EI faculty and students benefit from numerous extracurricular activities, including conferences, public lectures, roundtables and the economics discovery hub.
