Workshop in Empirical Economics

This course gives doctoral students hands-on experience with presenting research in Economics and Public Policy. Presenting regularly during the doctoral research years provides students with feedback about their research ideas, empirical strategies, and presentation skills. Students present their ongoing research and receive feedback from their peers, the instructor, and other faculty. Students will also meet with the instructor individually to hone their research and presentation skills. The class is open to all students in the Neubauer Family Program in Economics and Public Policy PhD program and enrollment is required for students in their 3rd year and beyond. The course is taken for 1 unit in Fall and Spring semesters. Credits for this course cannot substitute for doctoral required coursework and other requirements. Prerequisites: First- and second-Year PhD coursework. By permission.
