Beginning in the summer of 2003, four training institutes (2003-2006) on the campus of Washington University in St. Louis will be offered to bridge the divide between formal and empirical analysis. The goal is to advance the study of methods and models and to expand the research community with cutting-edge expertise. Each NSF EITM Summer Institutes is comprised of four one-week seminars --- a basic seminar and three advanced seminars. The instructors and the subjects addressed in the advanced seminars rotate over the four-year period of the program. All seminars are held in the conference rooms of the Weidenbaum Center on the Economy, Government, and Public Policy and the departments of political science and economics. Each advanced seminar concerns the relationship between formal models of politics and empirical research methods in a substantive field of political science or political economy. The formal models addressed span game theory, spatial theory, social and public choice theories, general equilibrium models, adaptive learning models, behavioral economic models, and hybrid approaches such as agent-based modeling. Empirical methods include basic and advanced econometric techniques and spatial models. Students attending the NSF EITM Summer Institute also may attend seminars in the summer program of the Center for New Institutional Social Science that will have a complementary schedule. The faculty for the seminars is drawn from Washington University faculty and from faculty from several other universities. The Washington University faculty participating in the NSF EITM Summer Institute include Randall Calvert, John Carey, Lee Epstein, Andrew Martin, Gary Miller, Norman Schofield, Itai Sened, and Steven Smith. The non-Washington University faculty instructors include Charles Cameron, Keith Krehbiel, Kevin Quinn, Thomas Palfrey, and Rick Wilson. Seminar guests include Janet Box-Steffensmeier, Eric Brown, John Ferejohn, Simon Jackman, Rebecca Morton, Keith Poole, and Kenneth Shepsle. 25 student participants will be recruited on a competitive basis. Students will be offered on-campus housing and will be provided travel and lodging subsidies. An EITM committee comprised of Washington University faculty will administer the program.

从2003年夏天开始，华盛顿大学圣路易斯校区将开设四所培训机构（2003-2006），以弥合正式分析和实证分析之间的鸿沟。其目标是推进方法和模型的研究，并扩大研究界与尖端的专业知识。每个NSF EITM暑期学院由四个为期一周的研讨会组成——一个基础研讨会和三个高级研讨会。在为期四年的课程中，讲师和高级研讨会的主题轮流进行。所有的研讨会都在Weidenbaum经济、政府和公共政策中心以及政治学和经济学部门的会议室举行。每个高级研讨会都关注政治的正式模型与政治科学或政治经济学实质性领域的实证研究方法之间的关系。正式的模型涉及博弈论，空间理论，社会和公共选择理论，一般均衡模型，适应性学习模型，行为经济模型，以及混合方法，如基于主体的建模。实证方法包括基本的和先进的计量经济技术和空间模型。参加NSF EITM暑期学院的学生也可以参加新制度社会科学中心的暑期项目研讨会，这将有一个补充的时间表。参加研讨会的教员来自华盛顿大学和其他几所大学的教员。参加美国国家科学基金会EITM暑期研究所的华盛顿大学教师包括Randall Calvert、John Carey、Lee Epstein、Andrew Martin、Gary Miller、Norman Schofield、Itai Sened和Steven Smith。非华盛顿大学的教师包括查尔斯·卡梅伦、基思·克雷比尔、凯文·奎因、托马斯·帕尔弗雷和里克·威尔逊。研讨会嘉宾包括Janet Box-Steffensmeier， Eric Brown, John Ferejohn, Simon Jackman, Rebecca Morton， Keith Poole和Kenneth Shepsle。25名学生将在竞争的基础上被招募。学校将为学生提供校内住宿，并提供旅行和住宿补贴。由华盛顿大学教师组成的EITM委员会将管理该项目。
