Program Highlights

The Department of Finance hosts a weekly research seminar in which faculty members, graduate students, and invited guest speakers discuss frontier academic research in finance. Although the format of these series varies, in general, they involve some or all of the following activities: informal discussions of recent research articles, research and publishing strategies, professional development, student and faculty research presentations, and visiting scholar presentations. Participation in the seminar/discussion series is considered an integral part of doctoral training. For more information about the seminar series, contact Matteo Binfarè or Michael Young.
