The Hunter and African School Program to Expand Representation in Economics (HASPERE) is a collaborative effort to train and mentor talented Black and other minority students. The program is designed prepare them for acceptance and success in America’s prestigious PhD programs in Economics and Public Policy. The formal coursework will culminate in Masters degrees from Hunter College, CUNY and from the African School in Economics (ASE). In addition, participants will be provided mentoring, workshops and research opportunities, including at partner institutions. Recognizing that some talented students may prefer careers after terminal masters degrees, the program will provide the flexibility to compete for positions at prestigious firms and organizations.
