Singapore Joint Economic Theory Workshop 2019

About

This workshop is the fifth in a series of theory workshops jointly hosted by SMU and NUS, aimed at enhancing interactions among economic theorists affiliated with academic institutions in Singapore.

By nature this workshop is organised for those who are currently located in Singapore, but the workshop is open to those who are closely related to the Singapore academic community such as collaborators, teachers and students of Singapore economic theorists.

This is an open event. However, for preparation purposes, if you wish to attend, please send an email request to the School of Economics and Visiting Professor Atsushi Kajii by Friday 16 August at the following email addresses (no need to do so if you have already been invited by the organising committee members):

*Please note that this event is paper-free and each participant is expected to bring an equipment to view papers/slides through internet.
