CSE organizes a seminar series featuring work on structural econometrics, econometric methods, and theory-based applied economics in different fields of the profession. One of the "innovations" of the seminar series is that we invite a junior economist (i.e., PhD student, recent PhD graduate or Assistant Professor) to give a talk on the same day as the main guest, who is a distinguished senior economist. The junior economist can be anyone recommended by the main guest (for example, one of their PhD students).
