On July 1, 2011 Cornell took the extraordinary step of creating an expanded and improved Economics Department. The new department is jointly funded by the College of Arts & Sciences and the School of Industrial & Labor Relations, and consists of all members of the former Economics and Labor Economics Departments as well as a set of distinguished senior faculty from around campus. The faculty list can be seen here.
The department starts from a position of substantial strength. Having a fuller spectrum of economic perspectives will produce even richer research experiences and classroom opportunities. Economics at Cornell will be an increasingly strong draw for top faculty and students.
