PROGRAM DESCRIPTION

The Hoover IP² Summer Institute on the Economics and Politics of Regulation is designed to educate students and young professionals on how to think systematically about regulatory systems and their consequences. Its goal is to equip attendees with analytic tools that are basic to good policymaking. The Summer Institute follows the model of executive education programs organized by business schools. It is an intensive, two‐week long program in which participants are taught by instructors who are experts in the particular subject matter being studied on that particular day. Enrollment is limited to twenty-two students in order to foster interaction with the instructors and intensive engagement with other participants.
