Law and Economics Workshop

Guest scholar presenting research

 

The long-standing Law and Economics Workshop brings together students, faculty, and a guest scholar on a bi-weekly basis throughout the academic year. The workshop has a deep history within the Law and Economics community as a proving ground for new ideas.

Presenters share early draft, pre-publication written works in advance of the workshop to invite ideas and critiques from the audience. The workshop functions as both a public event and a seminar course for 2L/3L students at the Law School.

Workshops begin at 3:30 PM and are held in Room F, located on the lower level of the Law School. Copies of presenting papers are sent to attendees approximately one week before the workshop. If you wish to receive an e-mail copy of the workshop paper, please subscribe to our mailing list.
