IPR Experts Turn Research Excellence
into Policy Impact

Each year, the White House Council of Economic Advisers (CEA) releases the "Economic Report of the President" to Congress. The 2023 report cited research by seven IPR faculty in economics, finance, psychology, and strategy 14 times across the 507-page report.

While a CEA report is likely one of the highest-profile research-driven reports in U.S. policymaking, IPR studies also frequently find their way into school districts and state legislatures, national agencies and international NGOs.

New research from IPR faculty examines the impact of concerns about downward socioeconomic mobility on college students’ academic experiences, community ideas to discourage gun violence, and two new measures of structural racism in schools.

The World Cultural Council announced that esteemed IPR statistician and methodology researcher Larry Hedges will receive the José Vasconcelos World Award of Education on November 3 at the University of Helsinki for his groundbreaking work in meta-analysis.

"Now, more than ever, Chicago is poised to lead the nation in developing and implementing new and better ways to reduce gun violence. With lives on the line, we have no time to waste.”
