The Levy Economics Institute is a nonprofit, nonpartisan, public policy research organization. The Institute also offers a MS degree with Bard College.
Founded in 1986 through the generous support of Bard College trustee Leon Levy, The Levy Institute is independent of any political or other affiliation, and encourages diversity of opinion in the examination of economic policy issues while striving to transform ideological arguments into informed debate.
The Levy Institute, together with Bard College also started an innovative two year MS program in Economic Theory and Policy which draws on the expertise of an extensive network of scholars at the Levy Institute. During the two-year M.S. program, students are required to participate in a graduate research practicum carried out by Levy Institute scholars and faculty.
To stimulate discussion of economic issues, the Levy Institute disseminates its findings through publications, conferences, workshops, seminars, congressional testimony, and other activities to an international audience of public officials, private sector executives, academics, and the general public.
The ultimate purpose of all of the Levy Institute's research and activities is to serve the wider policymaking community in the United States and the rest of the world by enabling scholars and leaders in business, labor, and government to work together on problems of common interest.
