PREDOC

PREDOC is a consortium of universities and research institutions whose mission is to foster a talented and diverse population of researchers in the quantitative social sciences, with a particular focus on predoctoral programs in economics departments and business schools.

The ultimate objective of predoctoral programs is to provide faculty with the best possible support for innovative research.  PREDOC believes that the best way to ensure this excellence is to recruit predocs from diverse backgrounds and life experiences, and to create inclusive workplaces where all scholars, at any point in their academic development, will thrive.

The consortium also aims to increase the diversity of the academic pipeline as a whole through this predoctoral focus.
