Title

Economics Dissertation Lab

Description
The goal of the Lab is for students to begin to develop the lifelong habit of articulating their research process as part of their regular work
pattern. 

The Lab meets weekly for 1½ hours throughout the academic year. Every participant speaks for some time during each meeting. A given week’s meeting takes one of two styles: either we go around the table and everyone shares what they've done in research that week or we break into small groups for theme based discussion.
