Institutions Program

February 09, 2012

The Institutions Program is an interdisciplinary research and graduate training program that focuses on political and economic change at global, regional, national, and local scales; the interaction of economic and political change processes; and the effects of these changes on societies, regions, groups, and individuals. Program members are interested in both substantive and methodological issues concerning economic, social, technological, and political change, especially to the extent that these changes affect democratic practices and institutions, and human well-being.

The Program supports a number of individual and collaborative faculty research projects, sponsors a research colloquium series; and trains graduate students from across the social science departments on the CU campus.
