政治经济学和政府哲学博士

政治经济学和政府博士学位课程（PEG）结合了对经济学，形式理论和方法的严格培训，并着重于经济和政治制度与过程之间的相互作用。它吸引了许多世界领先的政治经济学家，针对的是渴望追求顶尖学术或决策职业的学生。学生通常会结合来自哈佛不同学校和系的课程学习，从而获得真正的跨学科学习计划。它是1930年代创立的最古老的致力于政治经济学的研究生课程。PEG计划的学生和教职员工对政治对经济流程和成果的影响以及经济状况对政治生活的相互影响具有共同的知识兴趣。它涵盖了诸如国际经济关系，政治发展，政治和经济机构，体制转型和改革
The PhD Program in Political Economy and Government (PEG) combines rigorous training in economics, formal theory, and methods with a substantive focus on the interaction between economic and political institutions and processes. It involves many of the world's leading political economists and is aimed at students who aspire to top academic or policy-making careers. Students typically combine coursework from different Harvard schools and departments for a truly interdisciplinary program of study. It is the oldest graduate program dedicated to political economy in the country, founded in the 1930s. Students and faculty members in the PEG program share an intellectual interest in the impact of politics on economic processes and outcomes, and the reciprocal influence of economic conditions on political life. It covers such diverse areas as international economic relations, political development, political and economic institutions, institutional transition and reform, economic performance, environmental resource policies, and social policy. With an eye to building careers in an academic world still divided into separate disciplines, the program offers two different tracks: one in economics and one in political science. The two tracks have somewhat different emphases, but both offer ample opportunities for students to tailor courses to their individual needs. Emphasizing positive-as opposed to normative-political economy, almost any substantive interest can be accommodated by the exceptionally diverse and distinguished faculty members. PEG is a collaborative program between Harvard Kennedy School and the Department of Economics and the Department of Government in the Faculty of Arts and Sciences. Students in the Political Economy and Government program are enrolled in and receive a PhD from the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, even though they may work primarily with Harvard Kennedy School faculty.
