International Security and Economics Pilot

Part of the Dickey Center's Initiative for Global Security, this pilot project is an interdisciplinary collaboration between the Dickey Center, the Tuck School of Business, and the Department of Economics that builds on strengths across the institution to further Dartmouth's international reach.

The aim is to enhance Dartmouth's engagement with prominent thinkers from around the world, hosting two visiting scholars and two visiting researchers per year, awarding seed grants to support Dartmouth faculty research, and sponsoring postdoctoral fellowships as well as fellowships for recent college graduates that will give these students work centers on the intersection of security and economics opportunities to develop their research skills before applying to PhD programs.

In addition to its focus on generating original research, a primary goal of the program is to provide distinctive undergraduate experiences at the nexus of security and economics.

In June of 2024, Mike Pyle '00 sat down for a conversation with  Nina Pavcnik, Niehaus Family Professor in International Studies and professor of economics, to explore, "The Rise of Economic Statecraft: Economic Policy and National Security in an Era of Great Power Competition." The event was sponsored by the Nelson A. Rockefeller Center for Public Policy and the John Sloan Dickey Center for International Understanding. Read more about Mike Pyle and the event here.
