This doctoral course focuses on the presentation and discussion of research conducted by doctoral students. We are open to various topics. However, the seminar primarily studies the nature and effects of various macroeconomic policies concerning the recent global financial crisis and related financial stability issues. The group focuses on monetary policy, financial stability, and macro-finance interactions using various macroeconometric, general equilibrium, or meta-analytical tools.
The students will be required to present their ongoing research, and they will be required to serve as the discussant of the presentation.
Attendance:
- Full-time students must regularly present and attend doctoral seminars for the first 8 semesters of their studies (with minimum required attendance of 50%).
- Part-time students are required to present at doctoral seminars and attend them regularly, similar to full-time students, meaning they must participate for the first 8 semesters with at least 50% attendance. Students in the English part-time PhD program may request an exemption from seminar attendance if they are permanently abroad. However, they will still be required to present their research online. The student must send an email to cds.ies@fsv.cuni.cz with the subject “Excuse from Doctoral seminars”.
