About Us
About Us
Edunomics Lab is a Georgetown University research center dedicated to exploring and modeling complex education finance decisions to inform policy and practice. Established in 2012 at the McCourt School of Public Policy, the center is nationally recognized as a leader in the field of education finance.
The center is always seeking to identify the questions that need asking but are not yet being asked. To connect research to policy and practice, Edunomics Lab works with districts, states, policymakers, and leaders at all levels of the education system (local, state, and federal) to conduct analyses and provide technical assistance. Our research and modeling projects are designed to give policymakers and education leaders evidence-based, practical, actionable resources so they can make thoughtful resource decisions on behalf of students.
