Summer Institute in Behavioral Economics (BE)

Overview

Since 1994, RSF sponsors the Summer Institute in Behavioral Economics every other year. In recent years, the summer institute has been organized by David Laibson and Matthew Rabin (Harvard University). The program accepts about 30 participants. Most participant costs during the institute, including housing and most meals, are covered, and travel expenses are reimbursed up to a set cap. The schedule includes sessions outlining evidence, principles, and formal models of psychological foundations of different economic topics as well as sessions presenting recent research. It also provides opportunities for students to discuss their ideas and research with the organizers, visiting faculty, and other participants.
