This workshop is designed as a forum for graduate students, faculty and outside speakers with research-in-progress on the economics of development.  The scope of topics includes the behavior of individuals, households and firms in developing countries, agricultural and rural development, and both macro-economic and micro-economic aspects of the development process.

Graduate students who anticipate or are currently doing dissertation research in these or related areas are invited to attend the Workshop, to register for credit as appropriate and to arrange to make a presentation of their prospectus and/or work-in-progress.  They should also check out the Development Lunch.
