Center for Economic Research and Graduate Education - Economics Institute

CERGE-EI (Center for Economic Research and Graduate Education - Economics Institute) is a joint workplace of Charles University in Prague and the Economics Institute of the Czech Academy of Sciences, dedicated to excellence and innovation in economics research and education. 

In our MA in Applied Economics program we develop curious, impact-driven individuals who will help build more prosperous societies - Data-driven Changemakers. They can crunch the numbers and deliver social impact. They run regressions and interview people to discover their hidden needs. They have the courage to receive honest feedback and help others grow.

CERGE-EI's mission:

• Build a recognized center of excellence and innovation in economics research and education.
• Expand the pool of elite economists in Central and Eastern Europe and beyond to serve the public interest.
• Produce and disseminate policy oriented economics research.
