The mission of the Economic Research Initiatives at Duke (ERID) is to establish the Department of Economics at Duke University as a prominent center for cutting-edge economic research.
ERID provides our faculty and students a forum for fruitful exchanges of ideas with wider academic communities outside of Duke, both in economics and other related disciplines.
ERID gives priority to supporting activities that promote the department’s strategic vision - fostering research that spans traditional field boundaries - to the economics profession at large.
