Schedule
The schedule will be finalized in the first meeting. Period 3 meetings (topic presentations) will be conducted online, while period 4 meetings (main presentations and designated discussants) are likely to be held in Otaniemi. This entails 3 or 4 visits to the campus, where the seminar will meet in subgroups of less than 10 participants.
Please notice that information offered elsewhere may not be up-to-date due to the changing pandemic situation. The schedule information listed here is the definitive and most up to date. In period 3 the seminar is organized by Marko Terviö, and in period 4 by Kristiina Huttunen.
Post your last and first name, your current (possibly preliminary) thesis title inside quotes, and your supervisor's last name in parentheses. If you are writing a thesis in Finnish, please add a rough English translation of your title in the end. A one line post is sufficient, for example:
Meikäläinen, Matti, "The impact of generic substitution regulation on prices in Nordic pharmaceutical markets" (Toivanen)
Teikäläinen, Teija, "Laumakäyttäytymisen taloustiede" (Murto) "Economics of Herd Behavior"
Post this information before the first meeting. You can update it later by posting a comment to your own post.
Students will be divided into two subgroups after the first meeting. For period 3, one subgroup will meet on Mondays, the other on Tuesdays. The default arrangement is that last names from A to Pem meet on Mondays, and the rest on Tuesdays. The partition into Period 4 groups will be different, and with the constraint that in one group everyone needs to be able to read Finnish.
