本屆夏令營是北京大學新結構經濟學研究中心正式成立后舉辦的第二屆，與以往相比，授課陣容更為強大，不僅包括新結構經濟學的思想(Lin)、方法論(Ju)和理論研究(Wang,Grossman)，還包括新結構經濟學在中國(Zhang,Wen&Fu)、韓國(Lee)以及非洲國家(Wang,Monga&Xu)的實踐應用，全方位多角度呈現新結構經濟學“知成一體”的框架體系，并將安排赴河北河間市進行為期一天的實地考察，以期獲得關于產業轉型升級的感性認識和第一手數據。夏令營還將選出優秀的研究計劃書，進行表彰和后續研究資助;中心招聘時會優先考慮夏令營優秀營員(招聘崗位包括項目研究專員、博士后、研究員和助理教授等)。

歡迎廣大有志于了解和開展新結構經濟學研究的同學和青年經濟學人報名申請!

期待今夏，與您相聚燕園。

The 4th Summer School on New Structural Economics

July 1 – July 5, Peking University, Beijing, China
