Practicum

The MA in Behavioral Economics practicum provides students with practical experience in applying behavioral insights in organizations and enables the integration of the materials they learned during their M.A. in the field. During the practicum, student teams conduct a real project in an organization.

The practicum is designed to allow students to develop their practical knowledge and skills and provides them with hands-on experience in managing professional challenges, customer interactions, professional behavioral economics consulting, and effective teamwork.

 

During the practicum students will:

  • Evaluate and analyze an organizational challenge using a behavioral economics lens.
  • Design behavioral intervention, and, when possible.
  • Implement the plan and assess its effectiveness.
