Subject: NBER Summer Institute Opportunities for Graduate Students
Dear AP Group Members -
This summer, the NBER is trying an experiment at the Summer Institute. Each program will be able to nominate ten graduate students from outside the Cambridge area for invitation to the Summer Institute.
If you have a graduate student who you think would benefit from the NBER Summer Institute, please send me his/her name and a brief (two sentence) description of the student's dissertation work. I will then collect the nominations and forward them to Carl Beck at the NBER Conference Department.
The NBER will not be able to cover the travel or hotel costs for student invitees, so you should only nominate a student if he or she has funding for these expenses. NBER will provide the usual morning coffee and light breakfast, as well as lunch and any group dinners, for student participants. You may want to consider covering the travel cost for a student participant from your own research funds, or you might explore whether your home department has any such funds for graduate students.
I would be grateful if you could send me any nominations within the next few weeks -- by March 31.
Thank you and all best wishes.
Monika
