Title Seminar: Topics in Behavioral Economics
Description Description:
The aim of this seminar is to expand students’ knowledge on behavioral economics by studying (recent) research articles on the topic. To do so, students will prepare reports (in groups of three), in which they summarize and discuss an article. Moreover, students will present their report, while another group of students will act as discussant. Students are expected to study all articles covered in the seminar in order to be able to contribute to the discussion. With regards to prior knowledge, students should have attended classes on Microeconomics, and, ideally, behavioral economics.

We will give an overview of the seminar in the initial session on September 19, including the list of available research articles. We will form groups of three students who will collaborate for the seminar. The presentations and discussions of the papers will take place on November 14, November 28 and December 12.
