स्थानबारे जानकारी

The departments faculty represent a wide variety of disciplines, including economics, neuroscience, history, philosophy, political science, and psychology. Despite the diversity of the faculty, the departments teaching and research programs grow out of several intellectual themes that cut across the social sciences. The multidisciplinary character of the department provides a unique opportunity for innovative research. Research areas of particular strength within the department include: behavioral decision theory, complex adaptive social systems, experimental economics, evolutionary and biological theories applied to the social sciences, and political economy. As this list indicates, members of the department stress the development of theories of social phenomena that do not always fit neatly into traditional disciplinary boundaries. There is a complementary emphasis on the empirical testing of theory, leading to a common concern with methodology. Much of the research in the department has important and direct public policy implications in areas such as technology, the environment, and health policy.
