Summer Academy
About Us
What is CAPE?
The annual CAPE Summer Academy is designed to introduce the APE framework to interested graduate students and junior faculty, facilitate in-depth discussions around several key areas within APE, and create opportunities for participants to share work in progress and get feedback on research designs or proposals.
APPLICATION DETAILSThe 7th annual CAPE Summer Academy will take place on May 31 through June 4, 2026 at UC Berkeley.
We invite advanced graduate students (ABD), postdocs, and junior faculty members to join this annual summer academy. During the event, you will have an opportunity to present your work and receive feedback from senior scholars. In addition, most of the academy will be devoted to a workshop with several “core” sessions on the fundamentals of the study of the American political economy, led by senior scholars in the field.
More details about the upcoming academy and application process will be available in early 2026.
