CERGE Scientific Council

The Council reviews the conceptual framework of CERGE's research activities; regularly evaluates the results of research and educational activities; plays an advisory role in the distribution of financial resources, particularly for research activities; assesses the methods used to implement the doctoral study program in economics; and offers advice on other matters presented by the Director of CERGE or outlined or implied by the internal regulations of Charles University in Prague or CERGE.
