follow up from Susan Greig

by Jayne Brown

Hey guys, Susan Greig (lead on the focus on fellowship scheme) got back to me: For an associate fellowship, you need 1-2 years teaching experience. Working as a TA for 3 semesters takes your experience over one year. The written piece is 1800 words, and then you have all your workshops, mentor feedback, etc., on top of that. She said the whole thing would be equivalent to 100 hours (or like a 10-credit module).

PhD Lab slot next week + Referee report session

by Till Stowasser

Dear PhD Lab, (1) Just a quick reminder that next week’s Lab slot is still unclaimed. Does anyone have anything related to their research they’d like Lab feedback on? If so, please feel free to add your name. (2) The Econ PhD Lab is doing a Referee Report Session, similar to what we discussed we might do. That’s great, as we won’t have to to cram this into our tight Spring schedule. * It’s one of Carl’s research papers that got rejected (with referee reports), then revised, resubmitted to another journal and is currently under review * The topic of the paper is Econ, but the topic itself isn’t bone-dry: It’s about the Gender Pay Gap (details below) * The paper got circulated this week and will be discussed in the Econ PhD Lab on Monday 17th of February at 13:00-14:00 * I realise that this may be a difficult time for some of you * This is very much a group exercise in the sunup to the lab, so even if you can’t make the lab session itself, I think it will be useful * If you are interested in participating in this exercise please let me know and I’ll talk to Carl and Hector to add you to it. (3) For their second activity in March, the Econ lab will pick out some recent papers in top Econ journals for students to attempt to replicate, using published replication packages, and then the students will briefly each present a quick reflective summary of what they learned from the replication exercise they tried * Perhaps also of interest to some of you Best, Till +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Below are Carl’s instructions for the referee report exercise: +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Review Carl's Paper --- Spring 2025 Hi All, The paper to review is this one: Rejected at Oxford Economic Papers in December: Unequal Hiring Wages and Their Impact on the Gender Pay Gap | IZA - Institute of Labor Economics<https://www.iza.org/publications/dp/17285/unequal-hiring-wages-and-their-im…> <https://www.iza.org/publications/dp/17285/unequal-hiring-wages-and-their-im…> Slightly revised version of the paper is here, after the rejection, that we have submitted to another journal, where it is now under review. hiring_gender_wage_gap_2024.pdf<https://www.carlsingletoneconomics.com/uploads/4/2/3/0/42306545/hiring_gend…> Collectively review the paper, latest version. And prepare a 20-30 mins presentation for the next Lab. I will then try my best to discuss and reply to your review on the spot. After the Lab, I will then share with you the actual reviews I received on the paper in December. Best, Carl ________________________________ Scotland’s University for Sporting Excellence The University of Stirling is a charity registered in Scotland, number SC 011159

by Leonhard Lades

Hi all, This Friday on Feb 07, Amy Hume will be in Stirling for a seminar with the MSc Behavioural Science students. You are very welcome to attend! In fact, I would very much encourage everybody to do so. Amy is one of our Behavioural MSc graduates and she is having a great career in this field. She is currently working at Ofcom and deals with, for example, using behavioural insights to enhance online safety. The seminar is in room 3b26 on 11 at Friday. Just show up and also have a chat with Amy afterwards. I will join a little later as well after morning meetings. All the best, Leo ________________________________ Scotland's University for Sporting Excellence The University of Stirling is a charity registered in Scotland, number SC 011159
