Abstract

The research seminar is aimed to introduce the master students to the world of research in the area of finance. Research in this area applies specific mathematical and econometrical methods, as well as the perfect data mining skills. The course includes the methodological part and the topic development part. Both parts of the research seminar aim to help students to develop the academic writing skills and a number of soft skills that are useful for a financier (e.g. presentation skills, team work, project management). The first part of research seminar aims at fostering discussion and interaction on some topics as Omitted variable problem, Simultaneity, Measurement error, Selection, Event Studies etc. with examples of Corporate Finance papers. Key recent papers will be selected and discussed among the participants. The objective is to develop the necessary tools and understanding for future identification and implementing in research. Simulation of real conference/seminar format as well as writing of a short literature review will help participants to get the initial core techniques of scientific work. To follow this course the basic courses of finance and microeconomics are the prerequisites.
