The Department of Economics “brown bag” seminar series is a forum for the informal presentation of both research in progress by faculty, visiting scholars, and Ph.D. students and the research ideas of others by faculty and Ph.D. students for discussion purposes.

During the academic year of 2023-2024, brown bags will primarily be held in person and occasionally online. If you have any questions regarding online access to brown bags, please contact the seminar coordinator, Dana Galizia.
