Motivated by the COVID-19 pandemic and our resulting remote semester in Spring 2020, we started this blog to virtually showcase the variety of research undertaken by Harvard’s economics senior thesis writers (Senior Synthesis, get it?).  Here you can find short, accessible summaries of our students’ explorations and discoveries from their thesis adventures.  We hope this serves as an inspiration to our junior students and to the world.

For more information about the Harvard Economics Undergraduate Program, please explore our website.
