Becker and Milton Friedman, who believed that economic research
could help improve the world, the Becker Friedman Institute for
Economics aims to foster frontier research and apply those findings

Booth School of Business, the Kenneth C. Griffin Department of
Economics, the Harris School of Public Policy, the Law School, and
the entire University of Chicago Economics Community to leverage
robust data, apply cutting-edge analytical tools, and uncover novel
insights on the world's most difficult economic problems. BFI then
