Summer term 2012
Regular Research Seminar
The Department runs a regular research seminar where it invites scholars from other universities and research institutions to give presentations on their ongoing research. Papers in all fields of Economics are welcome. The seminar is publicly announced on campus, but it primarily addresses our own faculty and economics students at JKU. If possible, papers presented are made available for download below.
With friendly support from the "Linzer Hochschulfonds".
