Call for papers
We invite early career economists and PhD students to submit their extended abstracts or research papers for consideration for the Irish Postgraduate and Early Career Economics (IPECE) Conference 2027.
This year’s IPECE Conference will be hosted by the Department of Economics in the University of Limerick on Thursday 21 and Friday 22 January 2027. The conference will be held in person in the Kemmy Business School building at the University of Limerick. There is no registration fee for the event. Presenters will also be able to apply for an IEA travel grant to help cover their costs of attending when the next IEA travel grant call opens towards the end of this year.
The conference is aimed at PhD students, postdoctoral and early career researchers. The meeting will provide an excellent opportunity to engage with research results and work-in-progress in a welcoming and constructive environment. We encourage those working on economics research, based on the island of Ireland, to attend.
