Harald Ricardo Beyer Burgos (born 2 April 1964) is a Chilean economist and researcher. Former member of the Presidential Advisory Councils of Education under the government of Michelle Bachelet.
He served as Minister of Education of Chile from 29 December 2011 to 17 April 2013, when he was impeached because of his failure to address for-profit activity in universities (which is illegal).
He subsequently became executive director of the Centro de Estudios Públicos, a right-wing think tank in Santiago under the presidency of Eliodoro Matte. He is now vice-chancellor of the Adolfo Ibáñez University.
