The Center for Economic Research
The Center for Economic Research (CER) at the George Washington University is the Columbian College of Arts and Sciences' leading hub for economic scholarship. Our faculty and researchers advance public policy through cutting-edge work in economics.
Located in the heart of Washington, D.C., CER scholars collaborate with institutions such as the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, the U.S. Energy Information Administration, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund and the Federal Reserve Board. CER’s primary research areas include Microeconomics, Trade and Development, International Macroeconomics, AI Economics, and the flagship H.O. Stekler Research Program on Forecasting.
We host regular seminars and organize leading conferences—such as the Federal Forecasters Consortium, the Washington Area International Finance Symposium, the Washington Area International Trade Symposium, the Washington Area Network Economics Symposium and the Washington Area Labor Economics Symposium—bringing together academics, policymakers and international organizations to debate emerging issues shaping the U.S. and global economy.
Our Research
The Center for Economic Research facilitates a wide range of research projects that require economic data and analysis. We host frequent virtual and in-person events to educate the public, as well as serve as the academic partner to the Federal Forecasters Consortium.
The center also plays a major role in the training of MA and PhD students in economics and other disciplines that require economic data in their research.
