The UNL Department of Economics and College of Business Administration will celebrate 110 years of doctoral research at the 2016 England-Clark Conference. Presenters are all UNL alumni. To celebrate the opening of the Research Data Center at UNL this year, the conference will highlight applied research; however, all aspects of economics scholarship will be included.
The conference is named after the first two recipients of Ph.D. degrees from the then Department of Economics and Sociology, Anderson W. Clark (1905) and Minnie Throop England (1906). Clark was a much-loved humanitarian who founded the Child Saving Institute in Omaha, which still serves the children of eastern Nebraska. England went on to publish a series of pioneering papers on business cycle theory and financial crises. England served on the faculty of the UNL Department of Political Economy and Commerce from 1906 to 1919.
Thursday, April 21, Welcome Reception (Sheldon Museum of Art)
Friday, April 22, Presentations and Hall of Fame Banquet (Wick Alumni Center)
