Folks,
There are 3 overleaf accounts available for PhD students, these are available for you to use subject to some constraints. If you use LaTeX I strongly urge you to get one as it will make your life simpler and possibly improve supervision.
If I get more than 3 requests I will create some criteria to allocate these. But am minded to give them to more junior members of the programme.
Anyway, please let me know if you want one.
best,

Dear Econ and Behavioural Science folks!
Tim Cason from Purdue University—one of the keynote speakers at our 31 May workshop—will visit the Division a few days before the workshop. During his visit, he will be available for meetings and research discussions.
Tim is a leading expert in experimental economics, resource, and environmental economics. He has published in top journals, including those in the 'top 5'. What's important is that he is a very nice guy.
Tim will arrive on 29 May from the USA. If jet lag permits, he will be available that day and will be around on 30 May. He will be given a desk in office room 3B51, so feel free to come and say hi when you are around.
More information about Tim can be found on his website: [insert website link]. https://sites.google.com/view/tim-cason/research
I would invite PhD supervisors to encourage PhD students to meet one-on-one or in a small group with Tim.
Let me know if you want to meet and I will arrange.
Best wishes,
Mirko

Hi All,
I am uncertain if any of you would be interested in being tutor to Connor. He is looking for support in Year 2 Micro and Macro.
If you do take him up on his offer could you please get in touch with Connor and copy me in so I know this is resolved? Otherwise, I need to help find someone else.
The rates for tutoring can be set by you in agreement with Connor.
For some context, when I was a PhD I used to charge ~25/ph for Econometrics and Stats tutoring. I also have an email in my archive from 2013 (!) suggesting 15/ph to be a reasonable rate then. Adjust to inflation accordingly but I suppose something in the range 20-35 to be about right.
Best,
Hector

Dear Colleagues,
We will be welcoming Corrado Di Maria (UEA) to present on "The effect of climate policy on productivity and cost pass-through in the German manufacturing sector" (joint with Beat Hintermann, Leo Picard, Maja Zarkovic and Ulrich Wagner) A paper will be circulated closer to the date.
Bio
Corrado is a Professor in Environmental and Natural Resource Economics. His broad research interests span environmental and natural resource economics, energy economics, the economics of growth and development as well as technological change. The key feature of his work is an emphasis on both theoretical and empirical aspects, as well as its policy relevance.
Corrado’s most recent research covers several aspects of the interaction between environmental policy and natural resource use, the taxation of exhaustible resources, emissions trading schemes and their efficiency-promoting features, the role of skills in the process of economic growth, and environmental policy in the presence of directed technological change. Students interested in any (or all) of these themes are welcome to get in touch to discuss the possibility of supervision.
Prior to joining the University of East Anglia, Corrado worked at the University of Birmingham, Queen's University Belfast, and the University College Dublin. He obtained his PhD degree from Tilburg University in the Netherlands, having previously studied in Rome, Milan and Vienna.
Corrado’s CV can be found here<https://www.uea.ac.uk/documents/953219/4739267/corrado-di-maria-cv.pdf/ea4b…>.
Schedule can be edited here: https://stir-my.sharepoint.com/:x:/g/personal/hg10_stir_ac_uk/ETm88dL1rHBMm…
As ever, I strongly urge you guys to sign up for slots to chat to Corrado. This is obviously important for faculty, but goes doubly so for PhD students. This is a unique opportunity to talk about your reach with others and you can gain some real insights by talking to others. Please do not be shy.
Dinner
We will also need volunteers to come out for dinner with Corrado. This invitation is also extended to PhDs (dinner is paid for by the division).

Dear PhDs,
The Scottish Graduate Programme in Economics is organising a Summer School which will be run by Scott Cunningham, Ben H. Williams Professor of Economics, Baylor University on Sunday 28th - Tuesday 30th May 2023 at the University of Stirling.
The Summer School will provide an opportunity to PhD students, and also staff, in economics and other social sciences, to discuss the econometric methodologies associated with two popular research designs: the difference-in-differences design and the synthetic control design. It will bring the participant up to the cutting edge of how to handle complex situations like the inclusion of covariates and differential timing. As you might know this is perhaps one of the most popular methods in applied economics. Recent numbers suggest somewhere around 1/3 of papers in top journals use this for causal identification. Now, the literature has moved quite a lot in the last three years.
The deadline for applications is Friday 19th May 2023 and the link to apply can be found here: SGPE PhD Summer School 2023 Application Form<https://forms.office.com/pages/responsepage.aspx?id=sAafLmkWiUWHiRCgaTTcYeD…>
Further information, including course fees and accommodation, is available in this prospectus (pdf<https://www.ed.ac.uk/sites/default/files/atoms/files/sgpe_phd_summer_school…>).
The university pays for external training for PhD students and I think we could make the argument this is an important part of your training. I strongly encourage you to sign up. For any recent graduates you can still apply under the PhD fees.
Best,

Dear Econ PhD students,
We are back organising research seminars after a long paused due to Covid disruptions.
As I see it, this should be part of your economics training.
Among many things, seminars teach you how researchers go about structuring and communicating their papers and academic research.
Can I please ask you to join us on Friday at 2 pm in C3Y2 for Dr Bouwe Dijkstra's talk on Biodiversity Credits?
On top of this, do not fee shy about meeting our speakers and talk about your research. They are always eager to learn and listen to young PhD students and their ideas. Maybe a couple of you can meet Bouwe for a coffee?
Many thanks,
Mirko

Subject: [Econ] Reminder: Bouwe Dijkstra's Visit This Friday
Dear All,
This is a polite reminder we have a research seminar on Environmental Economics this Friday at 2PM in C3Y2. We will be welcoming Bouwe Dijkstra from Nottingham. Bouwe is Associate Professor whose research is in the areas of political economy and environmental economics, which has led to publications in the European Economic Review, European Journal of Political Economy, Public Choice and the Journal of Environmental Economics and Management, among others. He is interested in the theory and application of emissions trading and the links between international trade and the environment. He has recently taken an interest in the economics of the informal sector.
His talk will be on Biodiversity Credits.
I urge you to fill out the visit schedule. At present only two members of staff have put down themselves for meetings. I would encourage all staff and PhD students to grab a chance to talk to Bouwe. You can book your slot here:
Bouwe Visit Schedule<https://stir-my.sharepoint.com/:x:/g/personal/hg10_stir_ac_uk/EZzacIFlhhtKg…>
