Call for Discussants
To participate in the 38th Annual PhD Conference in Economics and Business, hosted by the ANU Research School of Economics this year from 18 to 20 November 2024.
The annual PhD Conference in Economics and Business was established as a response to the widespread feeling that PhD students could benefit from interacting with their peers at other universities and being exposed to a broader group of scholars. The students present papers on their research and receive comments from prominent scholars in the area. The tone of the conference is scholarly and highly professional, but constructive and supportive, with the students the focus of attention. The conference was initiated by the UWA Business School in 1987 and is now a joint venture between Australia’s top universities. Since its inception the Conference has provided the opportunity to gain valuable exposure for, and feedback on, their work for over 1000 PhD students from most Australian and New Zealand universities, as well as a number of prominent other institutions such as Chicago, MIT, Queen’s, Cambridge, Oxford, and LSE. Major employers of PhDs send representatives to these conferences that act as an informal job market. A number of outside bodies also provide sponsorship.
