The failure of mainstream economics to teach real economics, as opposed to contrived “models” of market failure and central macroeconomic planning, is why Mises University has been so successful and so helpful in the war of ideas and the battle for freedom.
There have been a few exceptionally bright high school students, but most have been undergraduate students.
As the influence of the Austrian School has spread over the years, more and more professors have read our literature, assigned Austrian topics to their students, used our videos and podcasts in their classrooms, and sent their students to Mises University.
Mises University has a large "Multiplier effect," if you will excuse my Keynesian terminology, in that the lessons learned have motivated many of our students to engage in lifelong learning, educate family and friends, create serious blogs with Austrian content, author mises.org articles, write for a variety of outlets, and even become scholars themselves.
Our faculty are just as passionate about what many of our students call "The best week of the year" because it is a joy to apply their teaching skills to a group of eager-to-learn students.
At the end of the week, students become part of a very special group: Mises University alumni.
We have made it easier than ever to discover Austrian economics through our enormous library of free information on mises.org, which leads many students to become voracious readers of our literature-on and offline-and to apply to attend Mises University and enjoy that experience of a lifetime that Mises alumni boast.
Students can only attend Mises University with your support, so please sponsor a student if you can.
