About the Center
The Center for Business and Economic Research, formerly the Bureau of Business Research, is a premier economic policy and forecasting research center housed within the
Miller College of Business. CBER research encompasses health care, public finance, regional economics, transportation, and energy sector studies. Some of the recent studies have been on the
Economic Impact of the Super Bowl in Indianapolis and the
Kernan-Shepard Commission and Local Government Expenditures.
We publish the
American Journal of Business—a peer-reviewed scholarly journal—and the
Indiana Business Bulletin—a Web site with weekly commentary, analysis, and data on economic, business, and demographic trends in Indiana.
In addition to research, we host the
Executive Economic Exchange and serve as the forecasting element in the Muncie area—holding five state and federal
economic forecasting roundtables.
