Federal Infrastructure Hub
The Center on Regulation and Markets at The Brookings Institution hosted an event for graduate students to showcase the breadth of research and data that are of interest to economists at the Federal Reserve Board (FRB). This workshop should be of interest to early year Ph.D. students that are exploring prospective research topics. In addition, the event introduced students to the FRB’s Dissertation Fellowship program, which offers paid in-residence fellowships for graduate Ph.D. students to conduct research at the Board.
