AERE@OSWEET
the Online Summer Workshop in Environment, Energy, and Transportation (Economics)
| What? |
One Friday each month, we will host an online seminar series with three short presentations (15 minutes each)—followed by a happy (half) hour! Papers and videos will not be circulated. |
| Who? |
For presenters, we’re targeting graduate students, postdocs, and early-career assistant professors. We may adjust selection based upon supply. There will be no discussants, but we will provide a time for questions after each paper. We will try and cluster papers by topic. The organizers of AERE@OSWEET include Max Auffhammer (UC Berkeley); Ariel Ortiz-Bobea (Cornell); Ed Rubin (Oregon); Katherine Wagner (UBC). |
| When? |
Friday; see schedule below. |
| Where? |
Zoom. We will send out a Zoom link to presenters and audience members. Register to receive emails here. |
| More? |
This workshop is a supportive and constructive environment to present research (but you still have to bring your own beer/coffee/snacks to happy hour). |
Interested? Please join the mailing list and/or apply to present! (And tell your friends.)
