Economic engineering is the science of designing real-world institutions and mechanisms that align individual incentives and behavior with the underlying goals. Economic mechanisms influence most areas of life. For instance, spectrum and security auctions, energy markets, emission trading rules, procurement and supply chain contracts, worker compensation schemes, matching and online markets all need to be actively designed; and the design then directly affects the price for mobile phone services, for electricity and for consumer goods, the taxpayers' cost of the financial crisis, the motivation and satisfaction at work, the probability of receiving an organ when needed, the degree of (dis-) trust ih markets, and the success of climate politics. Mechanisms matter because they affect incentives, and decision makers respond to incentives. They do not always do so in a rational or selfish way. though; yet behavior often responds in a systematic way. This is the starting point of the proposed research group, which aims at designing mechanisms in firms and markets based on sound behavioral research.

经济工程是设计现实世界的制度和机制，使个人激励和行为与潜在目标相一致的科学。经济机制影响生活的大部分领域。例如，频谱和安全拍卖、能源市场、排放交易规则、采购和供应链合同、工人补偿计划、匹配和在线市场都需要积极设计;设计直接影响到移动的电话服务、电力和消费品的价格，纳税人在金融危机中的成本，工作的动力和满意度，需要时接受器官的可能性、市场的（不）信任程度以及气候政治的成功。机制之所以重要，是因为它们影响激励机制，而决策者对激励机制作出反应。他们并不总是以理性或自私的方式这样做。然而，行为往往以系统的方式做出反应。这是拟议的研究小组的出发点，该小组的目的是在健全的行为研究的基础上设计企业和市场的机制。
