Summer Research Internship Program |
| Below is information on our past Ph.D. student interns along with the feedback we received from them on the program. |
| 2007 Summer Research Interns |
| Martin Oehmke, Princeton Fields: Financial Economics, Asset Pricing, Financial Intermediation “The internship at the New York Fed offers a great opportunity for PhD students to work on their thesis during the summer before the job market. I benefited tremendously from my interaction with the economists at the Fed, and particularly their institutional knowledge of financial markets helped me greatly with my research. Moreover, presenting my research at the Fed provided me with valuable feedback before going on the market in the fall. I highly recommend this program to other graduate students in Finance or Macroeconomics.” |
| Ian Martin, Harvard Fields: Asset Pricing, Macroeconomics “I highly recommend the Fed internship. The atmosphere was friendly, the environment was perfect for getting work done, and there were valuable opportunities to practice presenting my job market paper. Last but not least, it was a chance to spend an extremely enjoyable summer in New York.” |
| Greg Kaplan, NYU Fields: Macroeconomics, Labor Economics “My internship at the NY Fed was an extremely rewarding experience and I highly recomend it. I particularly benefited from having the opportunity to present my work to, and interact with, such a diverse group of economists. The comments, suggestions and advice that I received in seminars were invaluable. And I cant overstate the benefits of the informal interaction that goes on at the Fed on a daily basis. It is an inspiring research environment.” |
| 2006 Summer Research Interns |
| Pierre Yared, MIT Economics Fields: Macroeconomics, Political Economy “I had no idea what people did at the New York Fed. I think the New York Fed offers a unique blend of research and application, and the research economists form a great group. I’d definitely recommend the program to my peers. It’s a good opportunity to change settings, to talk to different people about research in general, and to get some perspective on one’s own research. I also think New York is a great city in which to live, the funding we receive is very generous, and the working conditions are excellent. Another nice feature of this program was that it put me in touch with graduate interns from other universities and provided a forum to discuss research and comment on each other’s work.” |
