Experimental Finance Summer School 2024

This academic program is co-organized by the University of Stavanger. Students are also invited to attend the Experimental Finance 2024 conference from June 10 – 13, 2024.

Aim

The goal of the summer school is to deepen students’ understanding and knowledge of the field of experimental finance. 

While all are welcome, the summer school targets the following groups:

• Young scholars from finance/economics departments who belong to a non-experimental group at their University but are interested in research in Experimental Finance.
• Young scholars from finance/economics departments that are embedded in an experimental group but want to improve their experimental skills and get an overview of some of the main fields in a systematic way.
• Priority will be given to applicants who have not yet completed their PhDs. 

Lecturers

• Jacopo Magnani (Norwegian University of Science and Technology)
• Nadya Malenko (Boston College)
• Olya A. Rud (University of Stavanger)
• Orly Sade (Hebrew University of Jerusalem)

Academic program

The summer school will start in the afternoon of June 8 and end around lunch time on June 10. The schedule will be posted closer to the event.

Funding for PhD Candidates

This year, the Society for Experimental Finance can financially support a limited number of PhD candidates attending the Summer School, waiving registration fees and paying for accommodation but not transportation. You can apply for financial support in your letter of motivation. Briefly, state which main attendance costs are not covered by your institution. Mention whether you would attend only the Summer School, or the main Conference as well, in case you are awarded support.
