A Beacon for the Region

Although the Institute for Public Policy and Economic Analysis is a program within EWU's College of Business, it serves more than just the EWU community. The Institute has gathered the statistical data, written reports for, and conducted educational outreach in many communities across the Inland Northwest Region.
