Professors Jon Levin, Monika Piazzesi and Robert Staiger have been elected fellows to the Econometric Society.

The Economics Department is honored to announce that of the 15 newly elected fellows to the Econometric Society, three are from our department, Jon Levin, Monika Piazzesi and Robert Staiger. The Econometric Society is the most prestigious learned society in the field of economics, with a world-wide membership. Its main object is to promote studies that aim at a unification of the theoretical-quantitative and empirical-quantitative approach to economic problems and that are penetrated by constructive and rigorous thinking similar to that which has come to dominate in the natural sciences.
