Economics Departments, Institutes and Research Centers in the World

United States, Top Departments

There is now an amazing number of economics institutions on the WWW. This is an attempt by Christian Zimmermann (Department of Economics, University of Connecticut) to index them. You can suggest additional entries or modifications by sending an email to me. The entire EDIRC index can also be searched. Each institution is attributed a unique handle.
IDEAS

If you are interested in Economics research, have a look at this new and free dissemination service! Already over 350'000 items of research over a thousand series are available. And an easy address to remember: http://ideas.repec.org/!

This page provides links to the top US Economics departments in terms of research output, according to Richard Dusansky and Clayton J. Vernon, "Rankings of U.S. Economics Departments", Journal of Economic Perspectives, vol 12 (1), Winter 1998, pages 157-170. RePEc now also publishes its own ranking, which is updated monthly.
