New Academic Year Faculty Welcome Reception with BFI Advisory Council and Saieh Fellows
The Becker Friedman Institute for Economics (BFI) is hosting a welcome back faculty reception on Wednesday, October 15, 2025. This will include a session that will feature introductions and brief research talks from the 2025-2026 Saieh Fellows, followed by a networking reception. This is an excellent opportunity to reconnect with colleagues at the start of a new academic year, and as we include BFI Advisory Council members, it is also an opportunity to engage with business and University of Chicago leaders who help guide and support our work.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact bfi-events@uchicago.edu.
