CERGE-EI will host a Virtual Open Day on January 26. This is a great opportunity for prospective students to learn more about CERGE-EI, university life, our faculty, alumni, and students.
It is with deep sadness that we inform you that on Thursday, 7 January 2021, at the age of 68, Professor Michal Mejstřík passed away.
The award of a second ERC grant, wages, education, the ongoing debate on the results of anti-epidemic measures, and the recovery of the Czech economy were all topics on which experts from CERGE-EI and the IDEA think tank commented in December. Our representatives attended a conference on labor market trends and a new IDEA study on the effects of insufficient literacy has also been published.
