Economics and Institutional Changes

On February 16 and 17, IMT sponsored seminars series featuring job market candidates for Assistant Professor and Post-doctoral Fellow positions in the area of Economics and Institutional Analysis.

Short-listed candidates came to us as the culmination of a competitive selection process that started with an initial application pool of almost 300 and continued with over 50 interviews conducted at the ASSA Meetings of San Francisco and at Royal Economic Society PhD Presentation Meeting in London.

Candidates presented recent research papers.

Please find below the Agenda of the research seminars open to students and IMT faculty and to all who attended.

All presentations took place in the Conference Room of the IMT main building, Piazza San Ponziano, 6.
