RES PhD Presentation Meeting 2013

Event date and time:

Saturday 19th January 2013 (All day) - Sunday 20th January 2013 (All day)

The aim of the event is to provide a service both for UK and European university economics departments who wish to recruit lecturers, and for PhD students seeking academic jobs in the UK or elsewhere in Europe. This annual meeting has grown to be an extremely successful event, well supported by both students and potential employers. The event consists of two days of students' presentations and poster sessions. Participating institutions attend these presentations and are also allocated space at the conference site in order to arrange individual appointments with participating students during the course of the conference. Participants should note that presenting a paper at the Meeting does not guarantee attention of potential employers: most participating institutions meet job candidates only at interviews arranged in advance and attend only presentations of those candidates.

The dates of the Meeting are January 19-20, 2013.
