CSMGEP Programs


Mentoring Program 

CSMGEP's Mentoring Program addresses the underrepresentation of minorities among those entering PhD programs or completing doctoral degrees in economics. The Program matches underrepresented economics PhD students and recent PhD graduates with mentors in the field and facilitates networking with senior economists during all stages of the educational and early career pipeline. Participants are eligible to apply for funding to support research and travel associated with activities that increase the probability of producing high quality journal articles.

AEA Summer Program

Hosted at American University, the AEA Summer Program is a two-month residential program providing intensive training in microeconomics, math, econometrics, and research methods. The program aims to broaden participation in the field of economics by preparing talented undergraduates for doctoral programs in economics and related disciplines.
