In January 2010, the Economics Program, based in ANU’s Research School of Social Sciences, merged with College of Business and Economics units, the School of Economics and the Centre for Applied Macroeconomics (CAMA), to form a new research school in the ANU: the Research School of Economics.
The newly established Research School of Economics also houses centres and projects formerly located with the Economics Program in RSSS including the Centre for Economic Policy Research (CEPR), the Social Policy Evaluation, Analysis and Research (SPEAR) Centre, and the Project on Rural-Urban Migration in China and Indonesia (RUMiCI) as well as appointments funded from endowments: the Coghlan Professor of Economic History and F H Gruen Distinguished Fellows.
The Research School of Economics is based in ANU’s College of Business and Economics.
The Research School of Economics conducts leading-edge and policy-relevant research, provides research-led education and brings significant expertise to economic policy debates. Areas of economic expertise include micro and macro theory, public and welfare economics, industrial organisation, growth and development, international trade and finance (particularly financial crises), monetary and fiscal policy, climate change and energy, social policy, ageing, well being, behavioural economics, labour markets, migration, health and infectious diseases, and economic history.
