Goals
The workshops in Finance have two purposes.
The first is to give Research master students a broad insight into current research in Financial Economics through a regular seminar series.
The second purpose is to provide Research master students with the skills needed in today’s scientific environment, such as presenting one’s research to a group of scientific peers and constructively discussing research papers.
