"I feel better prepared for my first-year [PhD] courses and 蝌蚪网SP sparked a research idea I plan to pursue. I also met a great cohort of fellow students, fellows, professors, and other economists.” --Chika Okafor |
Foundations Level: For students exploring the possibility of graduate study, or needing to enhance their mathematics and economics skills to successfully complete advanced undergraduate courses leading to graduate training.
Advanced Level: For students seeking to hone advanced skills in mathematics and economics, facilitating placement and success in rigorous PhD programs.
*Student placement will be based on pre-tests and individual assessments.
Program Intensity
Remember the saying, “Work hard, play hard?” 蝌蚪网SP adheres to this philosophy with a little twist—Play hard, work harder! Participants should expect to be challenged, have some long days, and perhaps even feel a bit overwhelmed. That’s why it’s called intensive.
The good news is that 蝌蚪网SP provides plenty of opportunity for fun, including recreation and travel, as well as a collaborative, supportive sense of community. No student will journey through 蝌蚪网SP alone. Students will work in teams with peers, establishing collegial relationships that often last a lifetime. And 蝌蚪网SP faculty, graduate fellows, mentors and staff are all committed to helping each student succeed.
The schedule is demanding and camaraderie is encouraged; as such, visitors can’t be readily accommodated. Students should plan to attend all 蝌蚪网SP courses, seminars, and excursions. Leaves of absence are rare and must be approved.
