What our users think about us

I have been a member of INOMICS community for over 8 years. I came across the platform when I was looking for a summer school in Europe to prepare myself for my Master’s studies, so I decided to give it a shot. As soon as I found my summer course on INOMICS (which I enjoyed a lot), I started to explore the website more and realized that I can also use it for finding great PhD programs, academic jobs, conferences and professional courses. I think it is the most complete source of information for students or career seekers in the field of economics. Gökhan, PhD Student in Economics at Ankara University

INOMICS has been very useful to me! I mainly use it to find conferences and fellowships, and I find it is the most complete source out there. I also know that I will be using it to find job postings at the end of this year when I go to the job market! Carolina, PhD Student in International Economics at Brandeis University

Economics and Decision Sciences

The economics and decision sciences specialization prepares students for high quality research on a wide array of both theoretical and empirical topics in economics. .

The Department of Economics and Decision Sciences at HEC Paris offers a Ph.D. in Economics program inclusive of a five-year fellowship . Our students are trained to the highest international standards to secure competitiveness in the international job market, spanning both academic and policy-making institutions.

The program

The first two years of the program expose students to cutting-edge courses in Economics as part of the Master in Economics , a collaborative postgraduate program jointly offered by HEC, ENSAE, and Ecole Polytechnique. This collaboration assembles the best researchers from the Economics departments of the three schools and HEC's department of Finance, providing students with unique and invaluable support in developing their research. In this vibrant and rich academic environment, students have significant flexibility and a broad range of options in assembling their study plans, allowing them to select courses that most effectively complement their initial background and desired research profile.

The subsequent three years are primarily focused on the completion of the thesis, promoting a rigorous and comprehensive approach to research. The high faculty-to-student ratio ensures that each student is actively involved in the life of the department, so that interactions happen continuously, far beyond the formal supervisor-student relationship. Integral to the training, the program encourages periods of visiting research at globally renowned institutions, enabling students to better understand the international academic community in which they will grow as researchers, particularly as they approach the job market towards the end of their studies. A variety of funding sources will ensure all the resources needed to a successful competition of any research in economics.

The department offers a rich array of research events that foster intellectual development and collaboration. One cornerstone is our weekly research seminar , where accomplished researchers from various universities share their latest findings, providing exposure to diverse perspectives and cutting-edge research. Furthermore, our faculty recurrently organizes international conferences, where PhD students are encouraged to attend and take active role; these include the “ D-TEA worskhop ”, “ Firms location and Economic Geography workshop ”, and “ Salento Macro Meetings ”, to cite only few of them. Another highlight is our annual Econ PhD workshop , a lively conference organized by our PhD students, where PhD students across prominent programs in Europe and US present and discuss their work. This workshop serves as a nexus for forging connections with future researchers and colleagues, nurturing interactions that often lead to collaborative research projects. Check out the amazing program of last year’s edition !

Research topics

PhD candidates will benefit from the outstanding research quality of the Economics and Decision Sciences faculty members. Faculty members regularly contribute to prestigious economics publications, including the American Economic Review, Econometrica, Journal of Political Economy, and the Review of Economic Studies, among others, on a wide array of both theoretical and empirical topics in Economics. The department hosts prestigious research grants from highly competitive contests like the national French ANR and the European Research Council.

The following non-exhaustive list provides some ideas of the type of research done in our department:

Within the realm of decision sciences , our department engages in both theoretical and experimental research, investigating individual and group decision-making, especially when confronted with uncertainty and the passing of time. Our projects encompass a wide spectrum of topics, ranging from fundamental aspects of decision theory to pressing issues such as decision-making in the context of climate change.

The department is also engaged at the forefront of theoretical exploration in various domains, including economic theory, game theory, and applied mathematics . Conducted work extends to dynamic games, social learning, strategic experimentation, information and mechanism design, as well as social and communication networks. This research extends to applied fields such as mechanism design and industrial organization.

Our department has a focus on entrepreneurship , investigating how to boost entrepreneurial talent, the influence of peers on career choices, and the challenges related to startup financing. In the sphere of innovation , our endeavors involve identifying innovative firms and studying green innovation through the construction of new data about patenting activities. We delve  competitive forces, R&D activities, and patent allocation, and study their implications for policy.

From a more macro perspective, our research projects focus on endogenous growth , incorporating firm heterogeneity, to shed light on the aggregate consequences of resource allocation inefficiencies. In the field of monetary economics , we explore various facets of monetary policy, including the role of household and firm expectations on inflation, consumers’ search, and the intricate interactions between fiscal and monetary policies.

In the field of urban economics , we actively investigate the ramifications of technological changes, such as automation and offshoring, in shaping cities and the relationships between firm structures and capabilities. Our department maintains a strong focus on studying the future of labor , harnessing innovative data and surveys. A central theme involves understanding the transformation of local labor markets in the face of technological progress.

Ph.D. Degree

Ph.d. in economics.

The Ph.D. in Economics at Indiana University was designated as a STEM program in August 2020.

The University Graduate School requires doctoral students to complete 90 credit hours, with approximately half of these hours as formal coursework.

Our doctoral students are required to take one semester of optimization theory, two semesters of microeconomic theory, two semesters of macroeconomic theory, three semesters of econometrics, one research skill, and three fields (one primary and two supporting).

If you have conducted graduate work elsewhere, you may transfer all or part of that work and receive credit at Indiana University (with the approval of the director of graduate studies). Up to 30 hours may be transferred and counted toward the 90 hours required for the Ph.D. However, graduate work done elsewhere is not automatically transferable.

In addition to the formal course work required for our Ph.D. degree, you are required to participate in at least one workshop. Our department encourages graduate students to present papers at workshops and scholarly meetings, and to publish their research. You can gain teaching experience by enrolling in a course specifically designed for training in the teaching of economics, assisting in large undergraduate courses, and by teaching their own smaller courses.

Research paper

In the third year of your study, you are required to write, under the guidance of a preliminary advisory committee, a substantial research paper. The paper is expected to be of sufficient quality to be a basis of a dissertation chapter. The overall goal of the third year paper requirement is to facilitate your transition from coursework to dissertation research.

Wylie Hall, the red brick building that houses Economics and exudes intellect from all corners, hosted my naïve mind for five wonderful years. It polished my thoughts, trained my cognitive faculties, and prepared me to translate my questions into game theoretic models and help answer them in the most elegant manner possible. The Department of Economics at IU stands for everything I know as an economist. Pallavi Baral, Economics Ph.D. alum

Understanding the Impact of Economic and Social Conditions on Health

A recent article by Catherine Ettman , PhD, an assistant professor in Health Policy and Management , published in the JAMA Forum examines how emerging evidence highlights the significant influence of economic and social conditions on population and individual health. These conditions, known as social determinants of health (SDOH), include factors such as place of residence, employment, and education. Recognizing the importance of these determinants suggests that policy interventions targeting SDOH can substantially improve health outcomes. However, crafting policy solutions that address these determinants and are acceptable to non-health policymakers presents a challenge.  

One way to guide policy thinking is through an assets framework, which identifies three types of assets that shape population health: financial assets, physical assets, and social assets. By understanding how these assets influence health, specific non-health interventions can be devised to improve health outcomes.  

Financial Assets  

Financial assets encompass income, savings, credit, and insurance. Wealth, more than income alone, is a crucial indicator of economic well-being and a predictor of health. Studies show lower debt and higher credit scores are associated with better health. Notably, financial disparities between racial and ethnic groups are more pronounced regarding wealth than income. For instance, the income gap between white and Black families is 2 to 1, but the wealth gap is 6 to 1.  

Addressing how financial assets affect health suggests non-medical interventions like wealth accumulation strategies. Policies such as baby bonds (savings accounts for newborns redeemable in adulthood) could help low-wealth groups build financial assets, leading to better health. Additionally, initiatives like cash transfers and insurance benefits to improve wealth could positively impact health.  

Physical Assets  

Physical assets include material possessions that provide shelter (homes), mobility (cars), and communication (devices and the internet). Homeownership, for example, offers stable housing, better living standards, and psychological benefits, all of which contribute to positive health outcomes. Conversely, financial strain from mortgage payments can negatively impact health. Homeownership also helps individuals accumulate capital to leverage to generate health benefits.  

Access to technology and the internet facilitates social interactions and economic opportunities, enhancing health. Policies like the U.K.'s Right to Buy, which subsidized home purchases, improved health indicators. Similarly, expanding access to high-speed internet in the U.S. could enhance access to health services.  

Social Assets  

Social assets include attributes that influence an individual's role and status in society, directly affecting health and providing access to other assets. These include education, marital status, and religious affiliation. Education promotes positive health behaviors such as regular exercise and healthy eating, while marriage is linked to reduced alcohol consumption and longer lifespans. Social support from religious affiliations and marriage also contributes to better health.  

Disparities in social assets contribute to health inequalities. For example, minority groups in the U.S. often have lower educational attainment and poorer health. Policies promoting affordable, quality education can improve health across the lifespan. Legalizing same-sex marriage has allowed LGBTQ+ individuals to access health insurance and other marital benefits, enhancing their health.  

Linking SDOH to Effective Policy Action  

A significant challenge in linking SDOH to effective policy is the abstract nature of social determinants. An assets framework can help pinpoint actionable policies that improve health. While not directly providing health benefits, financial resources facilitate access to essential resources like housing, food, education, and employment, which are critical for health. Although health policy often focuses on improving access to health services, expanding policy to include interventions that strengthen the assets producing health is crucial for comprehensive health improvement.  

By adopting the framework of an asset, policymakers can identify non-health interventions that bolster financial, physical, and social assets, ultimately leading to better health outcomes for populations.

WATCH: Harris debuts economic proposals to lower costs for Americans

RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — Vice President Kamala Harris is promoting a broad set of economic proposals that would offer new tax breaks and lower the cost of living for Americans, aiming to address the financial concerns that are at the top of the mind for voters and that Republican Donald Trump is trying to lay at her doorstep.

Watch the full event in our player above.

Harris was in the battleground state of North Carolina on Friday to lay out her plans, including a proposal for a federal ban on price gouging on groceries. She also is proposing $25,000 in down payment help for certain first-time homebuyers and tax incentives for builders of starter homes, among other things.

Harris is calling for tax breaks aimed at families, as well as middle- and lower-income people. She would expand the child tax credit to up to $3,600 — and $6,000 for children in their first year of life. Harris would expand the earned income tax credit to cover people in lower-income jobs without children, which the campaign estimates would cut their effective tax rate by $1,500.

WATCH: Biden and Harris announce deal to cut Medicare prices of popular drugs

Harris also wants to lower health insurance premiums through the Affordable Care Act.

Many of the changes would require congressional approval, far from a given in the current political environment.

Harris is trying to blunt Trump’s attacks on her as “a radical California liberal who broke the economy,” as he put in during a speech Thursday at his golf club in Bedminster, New Jersey, where he displayed popular grocery store items meant to represent the high cost of food.

Year-over-year inflation has reached its lowest level in more than three years, but food prices are still 21 percent above where they were three years ago. A Labor Department report this week showed that nearly all of July’s inflation reflected higher rental prices and other housing costs, a trend that, according to real-time data, is easing. As a result, housing costs should rise more slowly in the coming months, contributing to lower inflation.

Harris’ grocery pricing proposal would instruct the Federal Trade Commission to penalize “big corporations” that engage in price spikes and singles out a lack of competition in the meat-packing industry for driving up meat prices.

Polls show that Americans are more likely to trust Trump over Harris when it comes to handling the economy: Some 45 percent say Trump is better positioned to handle the economy, while 38 percent say that about Harris. About 1 in 10 trust neither Harris nor Trump to better handle the economy, according to the latest Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research poll.

Riding a resurgence of enthusiasm since the Democrats’ campaign reboot, Harris has embarked on a battleground state blitz in recent weeks that has broadened the number of races viewed as competitive by strategists. In North Carolina, Democrats are navigating renewed energy with caution in an economically dynamic state that hasn’t been won by a Democratic presidential candidate since Barack Obama in 2008.

North Carolina has been a hot spot for visits from Biden and Harris this year. After Biden’s disastrous debate performance against Trump in June, Raleigh was the first city where he held a rally in an attempt to reenergize Democratic voters. Harris also made two North Carolina stops — in Greensboro and Fayetteville — in the weeks leading up to Biden’s decision to drop out of the race.

“When it comes to North Carolina, we went from a situation where Joe Biden was almost surely going down in defeat here, whereas Kamala Harris has a very real chance of winning,” North Carolina State University political science professor Steven Greene said.

Dan Kanninen, battleground states director for the Harris campaign, said North Carolina “is as likely as any of those states to be the tipping point state, so we’ve invested in it heavily since the beginning.”

Harris is trying to strike a balance in defining her own image and economic agenda while still giving credit for the Biden administration’s track record.

Biden was asked Thursday whether he thought Harris would distance herself from his economic record. “She’s not going to,” he said.

In their first joint speaking event since Biden dropped out, he and Harris were in Maryland on Thursday where they showcased successful negotiations to lower prices for Medicare recipients on 10 prescription drugs. The shift was enabled by a provision of the Inflation Reduction Act, a sprawling law largely focused on climate and health care policy.

During the event, Harris praised Biden and said “few leaders in our nation have done more” to make health care affordable. The president critiqued large pharmaceutical companies and argued that Trump is “fighting to get rid of what we just passed.”

Biden echoed some of the policies being proposed by Harris as he made the case for his economic legacy.

“I have no problem with companies making money, but not with price gouging,” Biden said. “I thank God that in the last three months that I am president of the United States I was able to finally get done what I tried to get done when I was a young senator.”

Brown reported from Washington.

FACT FOCUS: Trump blends falsehoods and exaggerations at rambling NJ press conference

Former President Donald Trump said Thursday he’s “very angry” at Vice President Kamala Harris because of the criminal charges he faces and believes he’s “entitled to personal attacks” on his Democratic rival.

Former President Donald Trump on Thursday gave his second news conference in as many weeks as he adjusts to a newly energized Democratic ticket ahead of next week’s Democratic National Convention.

At his New Jersey golf club, the Republican nominee blended falsehoods about the economy with misleading statements and deeply personal attacks about his Democratic opponent, Vice President Kamala Harris.

Here’s a closer look at the facts.

Inflation did not take the toll Trump claimed. Growth surged under Biden

TRUMP: “As a result of Kamala’s inflation, price hikes have cost the typical household a total of $28,000. ... When I left office, I left Kamala and crooked Joe Biden a surging economy and no inflation. The mortgage rate was around 2%. Gasoline had reached $1.87 a gallon. ... Harris and Biden blew it all up.”

THE FACTS: Trump made numerous economic claims that were either exaggerated or misleading. Prices did surge during the Biden-Harris administration, though $28,000 is far higher than independent estimates. Moody’s Analytics calculated last year that price increases over the previous two years were costing the typical U.S. household $709 a month. That would equal $8,500 a year.

Separately, the U.S. economy was growing quickly as it reopened from COVID in 2020, as Trump’s term ended, and it continued to do so after Biden took office. Growth reached 5.8% in 2021, Biden’s first year in the White House, as the rebound continued, faster than any year that Trump was in office. Mortgage rates were low when Trump left because of the pandemic, which caused the Federal Reserve to cut its key rate to nearly zero. Gas prices fell as the economy largely shut down and Americans cut back sharply on their driving.

‘Foreign born’ is not the same as ‘migrants’

TRUMP: “Virtually 100% of the net job creation in the last year has gone to migrants.”

THE FACTS: This is a misinterpretation of government jobs data. The figures do show that the number of foreign-born people with jobs has increased in the past year, while the number of native-born Americans with jobs has declined. But foreign-born is not the same as “migrants” -- it would include people who arrived in the U.S. years ago and are now naturalized citizens.

In addition, the data is based on Census research that many economists argue is undercounting both foreign- and native-born workers. According to a report by Wendy Edelberg and Tara Watson at the Brookings Institution released this week , native-born employment rose by 740,000 in 2023, while foreign-born rose by 1.7 million. Much of the disparity reflects the fact that the native-born population is older than the foreign-born, and are more likely to be retired. In addition, the unemployment rate for native-born Americans is 4.5%, lower than the 4.7% for foreign-born.

A thief is not allowed to steal up to $950

TRUMP: “You’re allowed to rob a store as long as it’s not more than $950. … If it’s less than $950 they can rob it and not get charged.”

THE FACTS: Trump was referring to regulations in California that allegedly allow for theft under $950. But his claim is not correct — a 2014 proposition modified, but did not eliminate, sentencing for many nonviolent property and drug crimes.

Proposition 47 raised the minimum dollar amount necessary for theft to be prosecuted as a felony, instead of a misdemeanor, from $400 to $950.

Alex Bastian, then-special adviser to Los Angeles District Attorney George Gascón, who co-authored Prop 47, told The Associated Press in 2021 that the minimum was raised “to adjust for inflation and cost of living,” but that most shoplifting cases were already prosecuted as misdemeanors any since they didn’t exceed $400.

Prop 47 was enacted to comply with a 2011 U.S. Supreme Court order, which upheld that the state’s overcrowded prisons violated incarcerated individuals’ Eighth Amendment rights against cruel and unusual punishment. It instructed California to reduce its state prison population by 33,000 individuals within two years.

Harris has not said in this campaign she wants to defund police

TRUMP, on Harris: “You know, she wants to defund the police.”

THE FACTS: Harris expressed praise for the “defund the police” movement after the murder of George Floyd in 2020, questioning whether money was being effectively spent on public safety. However, she has not said during her current campaign that she is in favor of defunding law enforcement.

The Biden administration tried to overhaul policing, but the legislation stalled on Capitol Hill, and Biden ultimately settled for issuing an executive order . It also pumped more money into local departments .

Trump did not win Pennsylvania in 2020

TRUMP: “I won Pennsylvania and I did much better the second time. I won it in 2016, did much better the second time. I know Pennsylvania very well.”

THE FACTS: False. Trump did win the state in 2016, when he beat Democrat Hillary Clinton to win the presidency. But he lost the state in 2020 to President Joe Biden, a Pennsylvania native. According to the official certified results , Biden and Harris received 3.46 million votes, compared to Trump and Vice President Mike Pence with 3.38 million votes, a margin of about 80,000 votes.

Oil production in U.S. hit record under Biden

Trump says he will bring energy prices down by reversing President Joe Biden’s policy of encouraging renewable energy at the expense of fossil fuels.

TRUMP: “We’re going to drill baby drill, we’re going to get the energy prices down, almost immediately.”

THE FACTS: Oil production in the U.S. hit an all-time high under Biden’s administration.

The U.S. Department of Energy reported in October that U.S. oil production hit 13.2 million barrels per day, passing a previous record set in 2020 by 100,000 barrels. Department statistics also show that the U.S. has produced more crude oil per year than any other nation — for the past six years .

Economy has shown recent signs of strength, not evidence of collapse

TRUMP: “We’re going to have a crash like the 1929 crash if she gets in.”

THE FACTS: The economy has shown recent signs of strength — not evidence that America is on the edge of economic collapse.

On Thursday the S&P 500 jumped 1.6%, its sixth gain in a row. The Dow Jones Industrial Average also increased Thursday, as did the Nasdaq composite.

Recent economic reports show that shoppers increased their retail spending last month and fewer workers sought unemployment benefits.

Fears the economy was slowing emerged last month following a sharp drop in hiring and higher unemployment rates. But those worries were assuaged earlier this month when better-than-expected jobless numbers led to Wall Street’s best rally since 2022.

Harris was not named border ‘czar’

TRUMP: “She was the border czar but she didn’t do anything. She’s the worst border czar in history. ... She was the person responsible for the border and she never went there.”

THE FACTS: Biden tapped Harris in 2021 to work with Central American countries to address the root causes of migration and the challenges it creates. Illegal crossings are one aspect of those challenges, but Harris was never assigned to the border or put in charge of the Department of Homeland Security, which oversees law enforcement at the border .

Black unemployment is lower under Biden

TRUMP: “The Black population had the best numbers they’ve ever had on jobs, on income, on everything. The Hispanic population had the best numbers.”

THE FACTS: It’s true that Black and Hispanic unemployment fell to then-record lows under Trump, but that was upended by COVID. When Trump left office, Black unemployment had soared to 9.3% and Hispanic unemployment to 8.5%. Under Biden, Black unemployment fell to a new record low of 4.8% in April 2023, while Hispanic unemployment in September 2022 matched the all-time low of 3.9% it had reached under Trump.
