Events at CERGE-EI

We are excited to be kicking off the new academic year with our largest cohort of new graduate Teaching Fellows ever! The new Fellows will be teaching Economics at universities in 19 countries in the Central/Eastern European region.

The courses they teach are targeted primarily at first and second year students of Economics, and are aimed to provide new levels of excellence in both content and delivery.

The Teaching Principles and Practices course provides opportunities for Fellows to practice and discuss cutting-edge teaching methods, and to collaborate with established Fellows and Economics Faculty members on content and delivery. Another focus is to build ongoing connections between Fellows and CERGE-EI and other participating institutions.

Past evaluations by students and institutions indicate that CERGE-EI Teaching Fellows bring positive change and modernization to Economics education in the region.  We’re sure that this year’s cohort will continue the tradition, and will carry the CERGE-EI Teaching Fellows standard of excellence in Economics Education to their home countries!
