PHDBA279S (Fall 2011)
- This page is in the BPP category
- The previous version of this page is available here: The 2011 Spring BPP Student Seminar (PHDBA279S) - Student Version
PHDBA279S is the PhD in BPP Research Seminar, generally known as the BPP Student Seminar. It is a weekly seminar where students present their research to other students in the group. This is a required seminar for BPP students in the 2nd year and above. For Fall 2011 Noam Yuchtman will be the supervising faculty member.
There is an "official version" of this page, that the faculty can access. It is not important to keep the two syncronized. We can post the "final" results of the exploration that will take place on this page to that page once we are done.
New Institutions
Following a BPP student group meeting with Steve Tadelis last term, we collectively (and with the faculty) agreed a new institution for the presentation order at the Student Seminar. This is detailed here:
Class Details
The class is as follows:
- Thursdays from 12:30pm to 2pm.
- In C132
- With Noam Yuchtman
- Starting 1st September (Instruction formally begins Thursday 25th August) and ending December 8th (classes formally end Friday December 9th)
- Thurs 24th November is listed in the Official Academic Calendar as an Adminitrative Holiday
- By tradition/convention the presenter brings "classy" chocolate for all to share
Who is Presenting
A list of all BPP students is here. We have 14 students presenting (assuming Bryan wants to present), and 13 slots left. Generally, 2nd years pair up to share a slot in the fall. With 3 second years, we should see if we can organize a possibly extended slot, or if one wants to take a full slot.
