Research Resources

 

Our research and teaching resources are unmatched.

 

The research and teaching resources at Harvard are unmatched by any other school. Students can make use of virtually any methodology required to pursue their research interests, including field studies, large-scale statistical databases, consumer panel research, behavioral experiments, and theoretical and empirical models.

Support is available for methodological and statistical consultation, data procurement and analysis, programming, research software, subject pool administration, travel, and region-based field support. And, the collections of Baker Library—one of the world’s largest and most respected business libraries—are available at the center of the campus.
