If you are looking for various information regarding requirements, life here, etc... try and look here first*:

• Information from the Graduate School
• Requirements for a Ph-d in Economics.
• Graduate School Policy: Tuition, timelines, what needs to done and by when, etc. 
• Sources of Fellowships: The Graduate School sponsors a few fellowships and grants that you are eligible for. Check this important page for more details. 

• The College of Arts and Sciences has a lot of information on their website (funding, etc....).

• The Economics Department's website contains all the official rules for successful progress towards your Ph-d. 

• Do NOT forget about the Grad Connections, the wonderful graduate student resources page. It contains information on housing, health insurance and health care information, taxes, international student information, transportation, and Chicago fun lists. Also, here is an informal list of coffee shops in town.

You can also contact me. My office hours for the SPRING of 2008 are Tuesdays from 10-12pm and are on a ``walk-in basis.'' So, you do NOT need to email me unless you cannot make these hours. Also, please visit our friendly graduate secretary Mercedes Thomas. Her office is in Andersen 326.
