We’re thought leaders in market and public policy research
How society chooses to address today’s major public policy challenges fundamentally shapes the future of the US economy. The Center for Business and Public Policy at Gies College of Business promotes rigorous research on how market forces and public policy shape one another and communicates these findings through innovative teaching and public engagement activities.
We advance the conversation
The United States faces critical choices about how best to use private market approaches and government policies to solve today’s challenges, such as rising health care costs, an aging population, global environmental concerns, and public pensions costs.
Research conducted by the faculty in the Center for Business and Public Policy analyzes programs and policies to advance discussion around the implications of these decisions for our regulatory framework, tax system, and the level and type of government spending. These issues have far-reaching consequences for the well-being of our citizens, the economic environment in which businesses operate, and the long-term growth of our economy.
