Fourth Annual Santa Fe Institute Graduate Workshop in Economics

Computational Modeling and Complexity

14-27 June, 1998, Santa Fe, NM


The Santa Fe Institute Economics Program is pleased to announce the fourth annual Graduate Workshop in Economics. The workshop will bring together a group of advanced graduate students and a small faculty for an intensive two week study of computational economics. The workshop will consist of lectures by faculty, special topic seminars by members of the Santa Fe Institute, and presentations of work in progress by graduate student participants. The primary goal of the summer workshop is to assist graduate students pursuing research agendas which include a computational component. A significant portion of the workshop will be devoted to analyzing and improving research being conducted by the graduate student participants.

To get a better idea about workshop activities and focus, please take a look at the 1995, 1996, and 1997 workshop pages.

Participation at the workshop will be limited to fifteen graduate students. Student travel (up to a reasonable limit), accommodations, and living expenses will be supported by the workshop.

Sponsorship of this program is provided by Coopers & Lybrand, L.L.P.

To Apply

Applicants should have completed a minimum of two years of graduate study in economics and be actively pursuing research in computational economics. Interested students should submit a recent curriculum vitae, at least one letter of recommendation, two references, and a one page outline of a current or proposed research project in computational economics. Preference will be given to applicants who best demonstrate the ability to successfully complete research in the area of computational economics.

Women and minorities are encouraged to apply.

Completed applications should be sent to John H. Miller at the Carnegie Mellon address below.


The application deadline for the 1998 school has passed...please apply next year to the 1999 school.
